The lights of a distant town twinkle .
Stars dot the skies like diamonds on a velvet cloak.
Crickets chirp a chorus.
A gentle breeze flows through the undulating countryside.
Night has fallen on my world as of now.
Enveloping me in its comforting embrace.
I love the night.
The silence
The solitude
The comfort it offers.
The veil behind which one can hear one’s thoughts.
The space where one can just be…
The time when one can prepare
To face another dawn of noise and chaos.
The night is my sanctuary.
My healing balm against the front lines of my daily battles.
I love the night.
