in the night
there's a light
in the distance
is stop and listen
an inaudible sound
and you look around
a whisper in the air
there's no one there

i see a light
in the middle of night
its very bright
ill follow till it burns out of sight
is this a dream?
what does it mean?
where did it go?
is it down below?

during the night
there's no light
its so dark
i stepped on bark
I'm scared of the sight
so i began to recite
the past of thee
light i see

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."

This is cute! The feel of two good friends walking in the night is definitely there, and I loved the way the words flowed together. Great job!
