These are your nights
So dark and mysterious
Resting in the chill air
As you gaze wide eyed at the stars
Staring into a black void
Touched only by little specs of light
Of life
Not knowing what to feel
To think
You're neither sad nor depressed
You're neither happy nor joyful
Yet, you're not quite at peace either

What are you?
A lost soul?
Yes, that's what you are
A soul searching for truth
Burdened down by scars
Seeking rebirth
Feeling a warmth
Growing within
Falling down
Drawing close
Left Behind
Longing for your love
Not knowing
Afraid
Weak

It's an endless downward spiral
Uncontrollable in its ways
Covering your weakness in the night
Only human after all
Not a god
Not some knight in shining armor
Just a person striving to be the best he can be
To love with all of his heart
To live with all of his soul
Just to be at peace...

(sigh) It's time to head back to the dorms and engage myself in work.
