The sunkissed hours pass away
In the dreary silence of the night.
The setting rays make way
For the reign of darkness.

O night! You're a beauty indeed.
A queen of a kind,
so familiar, yet
Unfathomable.

The new moon shines bright, unseen.
The stars are in a tumult tonight.
Chaotic, yet silent.
So bright, yet not bright enough.

Darkness looms in the air
As tears flow down her cheeks,
Down her neck,
Down, down, down,...
Into an abyss of sadness.

Darkness blows like a breeze
As blood flows down her wrist,
Down the open slits,
Down, down, down,...
Into the abyss of death

A mind so blank
And eyes so cold
NO.
It can't be.

They were so alive
Just a few chimes back.

The clock chimes again, yet again
The stars are chaotic even now
But the mind isn't.
The stars are still bright.
But the eyes aren't.
Yes, she really is dead.

They say,
All good things
Are wild and free
If that is the case,
Why wasn't she?

A parent lost' a kid,
A sister lost a lap,
A friend lost a support,
A lover lost a heart.
And the world?
It lost a nobody.

The world doesn't care
That she lies dead,
Like a plankton in the sea.

So, let me tell yuh something.
I'm 'She'.
