Nocturnal Visitors |
Visitors of the night
pass through our souls, our spirits,
lingering
evolving
connecting those living with the living,
connecting those living with those long gone,
carrying hidden messages
for those who can glimpse their fleeting forms
foretelling the future, foraging through the past.
Heralding visions of pleasure, visions of horror,
arriving uninvited naturally,
arriving uninvited forcefully.
Will these frequent familiar guests,
these nightly arrivals,
ever cease their call,
clamoring for attention,
clamoring for reason, for logic, for interpretation?
Will their fleeting traces be always felt
by those with an eye for the beyond?
