alone in the night
Learn more about other poetry terms
I died to sleep
Perchance to dream
To escape this old world
With its horrors yet untold.
But, alas, I stirred
For a frightful air
Disturbed my slumber
Causing me great despair.
Some nights I lay restless
As the wind, a common commuter,
Having his travels through the trees
Greetings to the leaves
Down to the prickly grass
A gentle pass
To the stardust sky
There is a time at night
When the world has gone quiet
Not a single sound is made
And you are overwhelmed by it
A long time ago,
a wise sorcerer once told me
that every night, from then on,
I will soundlessly
fall asleep
and have a peacefully
lucid dream
of a far better world.
MJ got out again tonight.
My dad and brother take off in one direction on the long boards;
I walk in the other
And you find yourself in the most peculiar situations.
Peacefulness,
That’s what I feel.
The night time is peaceful,
But it’s not because it’s night.
It’s because there is another world,
It’s different from the day.
The stars are shining,
all alone in the night
the stars make it bright
and bring back my sight
when i'm alone in the night
a moment to reflect on what i've done right
