Darkness

Darkness

It spreads over the countryside, 
Like a black cloak.
Its bleakness mystifies me.
And like others, 
I hear the familiar sound of the animals. 
It expresses how we feel
When we’re sad and lonely,
and makes us afraid at times.
Why it happens, we know not,
But the darkness affects everyone.
