The Night Sky

Admire the beauty of the night

It’s  2 am and I’m still awake

I try to fight all what is fake

fake feelings , fake people

I’m staring at the night sky

And it’s strange because tonight there is no star

they are so far

and we can’t see them from where we are

Now i look close and i notice a star

there’s two , three , four , five

they are not shining , the moon took away their light

and yet they are still alive

they are still in the sky

they didn't disappear or fall down

I understood one thing from this

even if we are without our powers

we must stay powerful , stay alive

stay on our feet , stay strong

because our strength is not in our power

but in our beliefs , in us

 

Sometimes the sky is crowded with shining stars

but tonight it’s not , it’s clear

And so is my heart , sometimes it’s full of burning flames

but tonight it’s not , it’s clean

Tonight i’m like the night sky

tonight i’m free !

I enjoy nights more than I do mornings . . . there's just something beautiful about the serenity of a night sky (whether star-lit or not) that brings peace in my heart. I especially like summer nights . . . there's nothing more soothing than the sound of crickets chirping . . . it's truly beautiful. That's what I see in this poem: beauty. I liked the descriptions and how they capture a perfect moment . . . anyone who enjoys the night can relate. Thanks for sharing this piece.

Thanks for being honest xD , I am glad you liked it . I especially like the summer nights too , in addition , I wrote this poem one night in summer ( I was sitting in the balcony wathcing the sky and the stars and i was writing ) I guess everybody likes the night sky !

There is a significance in the individuals who evade showing their presence... Yet, it doesn't make them less important or powerful. That's what I got from this poem. Most people are afraid of total darkness, but you depicted such beauty and radiance from what nature can hold when all is asleep. I love the last line, too. It's very uplifting and makes the reader realize that there is hope if we are willing to look even further beyond. Great job!

You understood this in such a beautiful way !!! Darkness is something that we don't have to be afraid of , because there is no stars without darkness . thanks for your encouraging comment =)

The beauty of nature is how real it is. I could look at the night sky for hours and keep noticing more beauty in it. I find there is something inherently soothing about a clear night sky, as pretty as the stars are at night, lack of stars (or really dim ones) can be really pretty too. Nice work, a very soothing read!
