Dirge #13

I walk in the night, shunning the day
Darkness brings comfort, for a while anyway
The Night is my mistress, she enfolds me from harm
The flames of the daylight always bring me harm
People say, "Cheer up! Things really aren't what they seem!"
Why do they think that I prefer to live in my dreams?
Reality bites, and fate is a b*tch
Wandering in moonlight protects me from this
Solitude may be lonely but so peaceful and sweet
I never have to worry about harsh words wounding me
So if you try to find me, thinking I'm not feeling right
Take comfort in knowing I'm out walking the night...
