The deep darkness overcomes the light
The shadows all emerge into the night
All around the obscurity is never ending
Shapes transforming and all over bending
Looking straight ahead, there's a very dim glow
It's blossoming from a wee crack in the window
Moonlight peaks in and explores around
Everything is quiet not a sound
Slowly everything disappears into nothingness
As I close my eyes, I'm finally not so restless

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
