Silence of the Night
A full moon
is setting the night
into an all familiar
glare
scattered stars
appearing vaguely
leaving the night
still and bare
careless whispering
between the trees
and the soft winds
the silence of the night
gives off their
whimsical tunes
as they befriend
I seep within
the darkness
of my mind
opening to all
its familiar tones
the silence of the night
conveys to me
that I will always
be alone
