Dim the light once bright.
To wake in mornings shadow.
Slumbered warmth calls to stay.
As cold comes creeping in.
To procrastinate once more.
Lost in a wordless debate.
Twilight flickers on empty walls.
While shadows perform off in the distance.
Quickly to fade.
Shadows retreat along with the twilight.
Passing clouds bring forth obscurity.
And with it a diminishing resolve.
Darkening skies.
Wind cold as it carries the mist.
A weariness sets in as harmony is disrupted.
Replacing logic with doubt.
The evaluation begins.
Deconstructing the antagonist brought forth to question.
A trickster to weaken the ego.
Dare not give in.
Awareness of the self.
Such is ammunition for deceptive intrusions.
Pausing on thoughts that come into question.
That crawl out of the darkness.
Quiet to remain.
Dare not bruise another with altered perceptions.
Soon to pass, carried with the storm and its mist.
A challenge for the lonely though not hopeless.
Darkest are the days.
The self gets lost in slumber.
As light retreats and pauses too cold.
The weary must remember.
The twilight comes from within.
