Nightshade

Lay you down now gentle one
Your journey has been long
Set to rest that burning sun
Of places you have gone

Let the darkness soak and seep
Give her all your power
Seeds need first be buried deep
Before they come to flower

So let this twilight be your soil
Let your tears endear as rain
You’ve spent your time in so much toil
Digging through your pain

And pardon me for making light
Of all your doom and gloom
But gardens are a dirty fight
Until they come to bloom
