The Encounter

I was walking down a lonely street,
So hazed, so hollow, so incomplete.
Shadows of dark belonged everywhere,
I couldn’t see a thing , just empty air.

Somewhere it was too dark , or maybe just thought,
But something mysterious lingered, unsought.
Everything whispered, soft and unclear,
And I was trembling, frozen with fear.

I don’t know what I saw that night,
Something from the sky , a falling light.
It came down near, before my view,
A spaceship, maybe , I never knew.

It called my name to come inside,
And I walked forward , I couldn’t hide.
I stepped within that shining glow,
And what I found... I still don’t know.

Everything there was strange, unreal,
Too alienic for me to feel.
