Night Rain

The rain pours against my window in the dark

Pitter patter

The tears of those who cannot sleep

They knock persistently 

saying ‘’please let me in’’ 

hold me in your warmth

hide me in the soft white you slumber in

so it can smother the harsh voices which haunt me

Like snow which hides our past wrongdoings 

silences every footstep

blankets our sorrows with its beauty

Make me feel the same as i did when i was a child

and i tasted one of those floating sugar crystals on my tongue

and i felt my soul embers burning brightly

Maybe if you hold me tight enough

I can remember that warmth

and ill stop bothering you in the night 

but ill dream sweet dreams

where we play together in the snow.
