The Joy of Night
December 12, 2012
When emptiness fills my bones
and I am stuck in my mind late at night with quiet sounds
in fear of what will become once I am gone,
I wander in the rain where the street lamps
Smile down from their post, and the clouds sway just above them.
I enter in the joy of the night
Where time stands still with no trace of
Emptiness. I step into a soothing bath of puddles
And I hear around me the tears of joy on every rooftop.
Crystals, dancing down with their shine. For a moment
I wander between jigs in the night, and am full.
