The Art of Individuation

One Lies Awake

One lies awake solely because one is awake.
The night calls on you to embrace it.
For it is the unknown, the heart of darkness.
You feel it in you. Don’t you?
Those unanswered questions reminisce and flirt.

Being beyond limitation calls on me like the moon calls a wolf.
She had always told me my heart beat so strongly.
When darkness sets, those questions haunt me.
They corner me like a crazed mob and scream and shout.
Yet I glare back empty—unafraid.
