Silent and Peaceful

It’s 4 a.m, a time when

only the lonely and the lost are awake,

I hear rain gently trickling

down the bedroom windows,

It is utterly quiet all around me,

I like it like this,

Silent and peaceful,

Nights like these make

me think,

think about my life and

where I’m at in it,

my childhood.

how things use to

be,

It use to always be like 

this,

Silent and peaceful,

Simple and calm,

Never any worries

around you,

Now it’s all just a 

nostalgic feeling, 

lost and forgotten.

Very lovely nostalgic feeling.
Perhaps many can relate to your feeling.
Everyone may have her/his own feeling of the particular time of the day.

[Samuel Jack]

Very true and sad. I have the same thoughts in the late/early hours, you feel free from responsibility, your right it does bring back memories of being small and looked after. Great poem. Keep up the good words and welcome to writerscafe
