In the darkest hour
when I’m awake
Thinking of something I’m
not supposed to fake
I’d try to flow as a river
held together
On a drought, She comes,
trying to anomaly break
I’d have given up things
for her sake
But if I take a step back
I realize
It could have been a mistake
Assurance, reassurance
again and again
From myself to me
and back again
I’d feel like a trickster
deceiving myself
For I have known myself
longest and best
My evil mind, my selfish heart
All aghast
Mocked and ridiculed
Always ordered, “avast!”
And it doesn’t end
goes forever
Me deceiving Me
A Thaumaturgist
Alone and deadly
Devilish infernally
Traitor inherently
Prudent, fallibly
Anomic insuperably
Skulking all over
To the end of the night
It’s about time,
Sun’s gonna rise
Like a bat, I’m about to dream
Slake myself to sleep
For everything, I was not supposed to fake
Here and now,
Inanely, I did make.
