All cast in black with streetlight glow,
the outside locked away
but welcoming with rustling leaves
stray souls who shun the day
one step to take to heal to grow
to breathe in nature′s scent
To reunite the world and I
And just try once again
I will, I will, I′ll grab a coat
And thoughtlessly step back
To see myself reflected in
The window′s soothing black
It′s not the world I see out there
It′s just the self, not more
The world exists in sunlight′s glow
While I hide at its shore.
