in the darkness of the night

     as I flee from sleepless bed

traveling unseen by eyes

     careful footsteps not heard by ears

spirits of darkness chilled my skin

     slipping by with mournful cries

yet I can hear the pain within

     of souls tormented in the night

darkness may hide their tears

     and clutched pillows muffled cries

still although the pain escapes

     slipping out into the night

quickly I would flee away

     close my ears into the cries

lock my feelings within my heart

     still darken my soul from within

look not to the light of day

     when the dark shadows will flee away

for once again in dark of night

     they forever will always be
