by Hunter Duffy
He turned away
From the sun,
To the shadows
To the night.
He escaped
His treacherous days,
He retreated
Into his dreams.
Where there was
Nothing to see –
Only time
To think-
Where he had
Nothing to lose,
Where he could
Find peace.
So, he laid there,
Alone –
Dreaming in
Darkness.
Surrendering
To None,
Giving light
To all.
