THE WOMB

I crawl into the womb 
Of the night's gloom, 
It is where i often go 
To lick and nurse all wound 

Away from the inquisitive eye of the light 
I would hide 
Like an undocumented alien 
In a foreign clime 

A time, i would dialogue with ghosts 
That constantly roam 
The deep recesses of my thoughts 
In search of a permanent home 

And with the dead, i reacquint myself, 
Watching the ones who dwell 
In the rear view mirror 
Come alive with shadows and silhouettes 

The night is where i wrestle demons, 
Ask for refund 
On lost times, 
Open up a new lung 

And breathe
