Cloaked


Cloaked

Cloaked and hidden

Taken from the world

Seen but unseen

There and gone

All in a flash

Ignored and thrashed

Until life shattered


The cloak was not chosen

The cloak grew on

Until it seamed

The cliff was falling

But the cloak was on

And no one saw

And no one rescued


One day they found

The empty cloak

Deprived of life

Its owner hidden

And missing from life

Hidden from the world

And now hidden from light
