Umbrella of Darkness

Moon shields face

in ragged shrouds

Secrets crushed

by darkest clouds

diamonds lose luster

extinguishing light

sheltering my soul

umbrella of darkness

famine of the unknown

clamp of life’s torments

cacophony of moonbeams

dissonance of unseen love

spinning of onyx night

moon skin-deep in sorrow

entwined with filtered fog

eclipsed emotions

midnight blue thoughts

obscuring truths

moody night churns

moon gnashes teeth.
