A Midnight River

Her life stands in uniformity

She will not be caged by conformity

Her visions release a prophetic dream

A separation of light and dark by a seam

Every night she prays

'inside these  empty walls

let me see the light'

With each passing day, her hope slowly fades

She swallows the dark and it cuts like blades

She is but a vessel for her foolish ways

The life she leads seems nothing but a daze

Her feet & desperation learn another route

She has nothing stopping her than lingering self-doubt

Remembering that life is about how to thrive

Touched by the sunlight, her corpse comes alive
