cover my skin,
and take me to the ethereal planes,
just for one night,

because the sunlight is too bright for my body,
and the air is too light.

weigh me down by my calves,
secure them with a thousand pounds of warmth.

let the surrounding mountains,
and their forests,
block the sky.

give me an everlasting darkness,
it is my nourishment,
and my energy.

the twilight will illuminate the fields,
and color the bark of the trees.
sound, will be almost non-existent.

i can stand in the darkness,
only perceived by nature,
and my path,
has no direction.

my heels without blisters,
my calves without pain,
and my thighs with the strength,
to sit on a warm bed of leaves.
