Night
A midnight sky that dwells within is one without a moon or stars,
It knows no light.
So my dear don't dream of dark nights for it is only street lights that make the night more beautiful than daylight.
I once wished for a dark night with a dead moon,
Until I realised I couldn't afford to buy soul lights.
I was unexposed to myself, hidden under the cave of darkness,
I was lulled by howling wolves that cried for the moon.
My bones decayed as my soul sought the nonexistent light,
I thought this place was a shelter from the world but it was a shelter from myself.
The earth quaked beneath me and the stone before the cave was rolled away,
A tsunami of light gushed in.
My eyes now open,
I see the sun rising upon my gloomy night.
The sun is risen,
The Son is risen
and I with Him.
With this glorious light, may I never crave darkness again.
