oh, sweet night!

dear friends, this song is meant to be
played as a soundtrack::::enjoy::::

.

i walk the streets of my city…

an insignificant spirit refugee,

stranded in shadowed concrete canyons.
.
.
.
in my hidden anonymity,

blank behind blue shades and

wind whipped hair across this face.
.
.
.
i search in vain for any spark,

peek for miracles around every corner.

on sidewalks choked, with rustling hordes,

in narrow blackened streets, of rolling steel.
.
.
.
in shallow lung tentative

breathing of our muck and grime.

an empath’s lament and responsibility,

absorbing each speck in sound and emotion.
.
.
.
oh low sun…

you’ve…had your day,

blinding these sensitive eyes.
.
.
.
my shy sister moon…

please…show yourself…

it’s our time to shine now!
.
.
.
oh million hidden stars…

appear now one by one by one

and light the way to my forgiving solitude.
.
.
.
lone distant stars, join and sing your song

in ancient melody, erase this day in stale memory,

deliver our world, the dense of black night i crave!
.
.
.
help me, scrub the crust of strangers from my skin,

and flush their anxious aura, from my consciousness.

cleanse a fragile heart, every absorbed anger and cruelty.

free this old soul, from the deadly weight of this world.
.
.
.
strip me innocent again,

bathe me, in your galaxy starlight voices!

sing in glorius chorus, of collective memory,

in universal dialect of wisdom and harmony.
.
.
.
tender night, calm this restless mind,

cradle a trusting heart in your embrace.

blanket me close, in ethereal spirit mystery

of self reflection and fearless quietude.
.
.
.
.
oh sweet night!
.
.
usher in the hushed
.
midnight hours ’til dawn…
.
it’s there… when the world
.
is invisible and asleep…
.
it’s then….

that i can hear
.
the kindness of the Universe,
.
whisper the poetry
.
of sweet emotional release!
