The Midnight Ride

The Midnight Ride

A Poem by Aaliyah McKune

Something is always cruising in the wind
Dusk into Dawn into evening into midnight
Speed limit is like a heart rate
A simple nothing becomes just about everything
You see it for what it completely is
The power of midnight knowing but not telling
Oh the sweet voices of innocence
What dreams could become reality if not awaken
Too soon will there be another Dusk into Dawn
How much time will it take for that nothing to become something
A sudden stop and a thought to the mind
Soft whispers rising up from the cool side walks
If there was only one place to go
A distraction in disguise to reveal was is real
An unlikely fall_____________wait
Does one see the stars and the moon
To tell all from the midnight sky
A secret kept on the moon w/ the details in the stars
Laughter excites many but silence fears all
Most Wanted
Lust by temptation
Now the walls are coming down
I could touch the no with the taste of yes
More time is needed - no more time - its up
Blue, Purple, Pink fill the air w/marshmallow
What went wrong is the feeling of being so right
Is it satisfaction of disappointment?

I love the nighttime! I used to absolutely hate it, but now I love how mysterious it is, and your poem made me want to write my own about nighttime. This is so beautiful, and each word added and reminded me of haunting nights even more.
