Running Toward Night


With one last glance I close the door
Leaving my life behind me;
Drawing the hood of my cloak up close
Going where none can find me.

The fading green by the lintel stone,
Where summer splendors cling,
Draws my heart in a last embrace
As the stars and the night birds sing.

Far from this cottage greenwood clad:
Away from love go I;
Where hope is wrenched from a mothers breast;
When innocent children die.

Depart from love and laughter;
Cast far from my glad eyed boys
From the searing touch of Fevers hand
And the life that He destroys.

Leaving behind the moonlit hills
That shadow the fresh turned earth.
Sweet milk spills, marking my pain
As it did when I gave birth.

Tearing away I run thru the gate
And on to what beckons me;
While the anguished sobs that stumble ahead
Are drowned in the cry of the sea.

The moon rides high as it lights my way
I walk its ribboned light.
I am wrapped in the oceans icy arms
There is cold.
There is peace.
There is night.
