Reign of the nights

Thoughts have returned home
after running astray
to a mind blanked
and withered away
the sunshine is lost in a corner
while the night dances away
I wonder
as the darkness devours the gray
Am I a scavenger of the night
...or a prey?

though poems are open to interpretation, still please explain - "as the darkness..."

Two possible interpretations (actually more, but let's stick to 2)
Darkness of the night devouring the grey evenings which would have been more livelier to have

Darkness of night and of thought devouring the grey matter of ur head...

Haha, maybe true, I agree. There's a strange resonance in some stories with *everybody's* life!
