Inside the night

Look at the waning bright side
snuffed out. Cornered. Closed
by corkscrew shades held tight.

Now blue suits tend to trend
toward the dark, unliked by
search light sunflowers.

But once in the inside night
shadows fade into the dimmed
hopes that hold the why.

Maybe there they find relief
from the unseen walls now
known only by echo.
