When the most beautiful of lights shines upon my life

My shadow weighs behind


She corrupts the moonlight through my window

To birth monsters beneath my bed.


But in my deepest, darkest hour of melancholy

She is nowhere to be seen


She is washed away by the thunderous storm

But taunts after rainbows.


It is as if she calibrates the intensity of my pain

To just enough suffrage

 

For I can never be too happy without her appearance

Nor too sad before her disappearance.
