You and I
August 30, 2013
We are night, creeping slowly towards the setting sun.
Darkness overcomes, but nothing bad comes.
It’s peaceful, relaxing, as we sit hand in hand
You sing to me, and I’m happy where I am.
My clothes are black, and yours are white.
I suppose a poet would say I am the night sky,
And you are the stars that create the light.
But you know that we are both parts of each.
We shine and smile and laugh showing our teeth.
Yet darkness stays there, deep thoughts within.
Sweet silence and love and quiet joy.
Hidden by a veil of darkness we employ.
