Interlude to maddness

I am the night,

The darkness,

The flight,

I am the one bearing all mens fright .

I am a thousand plagues,

The locusts,

The pain,

I am the death of our sons in a midnight haze.

I am the loss of mind,

The insanity,

The light,

I am the emotion of falling behind.

I am absolute truth,

The power,

The ruse,

I am you.
