In The Night ©©

The night, is where I live
Where I wander
Where no one looks for me.
Where I am, who I am
Away from prying eyes

In the night the world is free
Uncluttered, barren, peaceful
All mine, just for me to touch
Except for the stars in the sky
There is no one to see what I see

In the night my heart beats
Filled with life
Desire to live fills the night air
A heart beat echoes through the stillness
My song beats all night long

All night long I dance in the shadows
From one to the other I sail
Like a spectre to those I am lost to, I pass the night
My footsteps in the morning dew only remain
To be burned off in dawn’s early light
