HELLO, MOON




Hello, moon.
Hello, night sky.
Hello, cold night air.
Goodbye, sunlight.
Goodbye, warmth.
Hello, moon.

WILL MY WISHES COME TRUE?



I gaze at the night sky
at the bright lights so high.
Will my wishes come true?
Will I ever see you?

You appear in my dreams each night.
I yearn to have you in my sight.
I haven’t seen you for years.
But you’re always in my tears.

Would we have had a good life,
one without sadness and strife?
I won’t be able to ask you this.
I won’t be rewarded with this bliss.

I must be content with my dreams
as my life crumbles at the seams.
I keep my memories close inside.
Of my love, I have no need to hide.

THE DARK OF NIGHT



The moon bows its head.
In retreat behind the clouds.
Hiding its face.
Leaving no trace behind.
That’s when they’ll come.
In the dark.
In the cold.
In the night.

Hello moon.

A CHARGED NIGHT



A sizzle lights up the night sky.
Followed by thunder up so high.
The black clouds rumble in dismay.
Crumbling like figures of clay.
Red soon joins the purple light.
Gearing up for a loud fight.
The sea’s quiet below.
Keeping its head down low.
We’re in for a charged night.
As The Dead come to fight.

PERFECT


Perfect.
A little too perfect.
Beneath the magenta sky
hides a deadly presence.
A force of darkness
rising with the cold moon.
To snatch the residents
from their comfortable beds.
Adding them to their collection
of The Dead and gone.
Gone from the light.
Gone from the living.
To dwell in the darkness of night.
Take care to remember,
as you lay your head down to sleep,
that nothing can stay perfect forever.

HOPES AND DREAMS




HOPES AND DREAMS
Look up at the sky.
Hope for better things.
Pray for your family.
Wish for happiness.
Your hopes and dreams 
will lead you in the right direction.

OUR GAMES HAVE JUST BEGUN





Linda lifts her face to the night sky.
The clouds part to reveal the light of the moon.
A light reserved for night creatures.
Footsteps echo behind her on the deserted walkway.
Sand from the beach swirls in mounds around her.
Laughter floats in the wind.
Will I make it home in time?
I should never have taken a walk alone at night.
Head down, racing down the path, 
She doesn’t see the shadow detaching itself
From the trees flailing in the wind.
She flies into its waiting arms.
“What the hell are you doing here?”
Todd holds her steady against the wind’s increasing fury.
I will walk you home.”
His dark eyes tear through her.
She isn’t afraid of him.
Or is she?
