I want to go in silence, in solitude

Mirror captures midnight moon,

A step to follow under the pale light.

Time stops here or else get arrested

Knock at the door or illusion may be

Shadows blossom on the broken wall.

Does someone waiting at a distance?

To prevent roll over all on a sudden.

In addition, rustling of leaves encompass

Powerful images all around the dark space.

Cozy life takes backseat and become outdated

Opening a dream passage to walk through

Escape for the slippery ramps of lifeboat.

Map the patterns and loose the identity at will.

Laden frame texture of window maneuver often

Descending night on the still water of lazy river.

I try to survive, I strive for gaining ground

In this lonely backdrop of silver night.
