Your insidious ways finally choked my sky,
shielding the moonlight from carpeting the ground.
Left in total darkness with nary a star to guide me,
my hesitant feet and outstretched arms floundered.
Venturing on while smothering cries of near despair,
thoughts of you wove themselves through my mind.
No longer did I feel the ardency of your false words...
seeing the smile that was hideously twisted in its deceit.
Escape meant that I could return to what was known:
the solid footing I had before you obscured my terrain.
And I fiercely embraced the desire to find it again,
stumbling on through the absolute blackness.
