Night

As the night creeps in 

and the world goes quiet 

is when my body awakens 

and mind starts to riot

the night is strange 

its a blanket of darkness 

it can be calming and comforting 

or call to the heartless 

I can sometimes find peace 

and safety in the dusk

or it can suck me down

a hole that erupts

The night can be your friend 

or it can be your foe 

but until the night comes 

you'll never really know
