Night

Gentle slumber, come to me

As shadows lengthen into night.

The moon peeks through my window like

The soothing glow of candlelight.

 

A quiet calm engulfs the room

As stillness permeates the air,

And time winds down to a trifling prattle

Then disappears without a care.

 

Silent slumber, heal me, steel me,

Mend the trauma, give me rest.

Prepare me for the day to come

So I may shine among the best.

 

Call it magic if you will.

The story isn’t hard to tell.

And we are wise to close our eyes

And make the most of nighttime’s spell.
