Night

By LostInDarkness

Wonderful Night
To me, the Night is the day 
Im awake every hour of every day
But the Night is when i think the best

If your like me, the Night is your best friend
It is the only true time to be alone, to reflect
To think about life and death
To wonder what comes next

And at Night, i feel truly alive
Like this is what im meant to do
Me and the Night have always been friends
Even when i was a little kid

The Night just feels like home to me
As if its where i truly belong
The beauty of the Night
Its darkness, the stars, no movement  except for the slight breeze 

And me, walking silently in the Night
Moving as if im a cat hunting its prey
No one can spot me in the dark
For ive lived there long enough it hides me

Ive been Lost In Darkness
But it showed me its secrets, never hiding a thing
And i became its friend, its secret lover
Its who i run to when i want to be alone

Maybe one day in the future
Ill show you the secrets of the Darkness
Just like a mother lion teachers her cub how to hunt
Just like how ill teach you how to hunt....

    Hi LID - first "how" in last line is not needed I don't believe? This was a fine paen to the night, too bad we don't have better night vision. Perhaps you should be working the nightshift? I did it for 25 years and the only time I was tired was when the sun was rising. Cheers!
