Nature’s Darkness

The bitter silence bites your tongue
Filled with emotions, not only one

Crunch, the leaves scratch my feet
The lonely moon and dark clouds meet

It is as dark as the empty space in my head
The hard feeling of cold, I am lead

The chilly breeze blows past the wispy leaves
Nature haunts me as my mind weaves

The thoughts that take me to this place
As night and day race
