When The Night Falls (Or The Questions Of A Storm Wracked Soul) ... Poem by Debdip Maitra

And when night falls,
Will the demons come to play,
To listen to the stories I tell?

And when night falls,
Will my screaming find​ a voice,
Or the screams of silence rage on?

And when night falls,
Will the stars burn tonight,
Or shall I burn in saturnine glory?

And when the night falls,
Will I be the one to burn,
Or will there be nothing left?

And when the night falls,
And my masks are finally shed,
Will you scream in terror and run?

And when the night falls,
Will you finally break me down,
Will you finally be the end...

And when the night falls,
Will I finally find my peace,
Amidst the cold flames​ of hell?

And when the night falls,
Will you finally come to see,
Come to see the pain I smile? ...

For when the night falls,
And I am broken inside,
Will you be the lighthouse I need,
Or will the storms within take me?
