In the Night (Free verse) by Joi
As the darkness surrounds me
I feel the present of a being
As the darkness surrounds me
My heart beats faster
The silence of the night
The calm of the storm
The subtle hint of coolness
In the quietness of the night
As I walk in the mist of the night
I feel the dew touching down upon my skin
It sweeps across my face
It is the still of the night
Noises off in the distance
Sounds of pain
Sounds of joy
The void of the night
In the stillness of the night
I feel a warm breeze blowing through me
I feel as though I am weightless
Fluff in the night
The smell of rain
I feel the rain drops falling
I see the puddles on the ground
The drops of rain drench me
I can sense the calm
Calm of the night
Creatures stirring about
Night skies full of star light
Oh how I sense all the above
I know in my heart
It is the sounds of love
Enclosing me in
Holding me hostage.
