Not Knowing - with Thinningveil

Like sheet music in my mind  
with the sound of silence  
floating through the air,  
Staccato notes piercing  
through the night  
in the corners of my mind  
over headstones.  

Haunting me as stoners sleep  
turning frowns upside down  
awakening to the dawn,  
gifted by the swallow  
with metaphors for tomorrow  
not knowing what is coming  
through the dark.
Written by adagio

It was a Poe night as I contemplated, looking out over my insomnia.
