Dark Side of Light

I live in a garden
I hide from the day  
Here in the shadows  
A place I choose to stay  
I wait for the night  
That’s when I feel alive  
I walk with Angels  
That didn’t survive  
 
The light illuminates  
All the hidden pain  
I can’t see to let go  
Only memories remain  
Here in the darkness  
I find comfort and tranquility  
I collect only dark feathers  
As you question my sincerity  
 
In the night I live in my dream  
With wings of feathers I do not own  
To fly among the stars without a moon  
Like lost angels without a home  
Sometimes I scream out loud  
Memories are like stones  
Like a rock they carry all the weight  
They only hurt when you crash on them alone
