You and the night

There's something about the night
it brings darkness that allows you see
silence that helps you hear

There's something about the night
that sets you on a high
you can almost touch the sky

There's something about the night
that shields
no insecurities, no fears, no rules.

Just you and the night.

Sorry If I'm Out Of Order But This Poem Is Beautiful

Short and sweet that's how I like them.
I have been away from Neopoet for a while trying to collect my thoughts.
I came across your poem & I felt the love pop up once again.
O.K. you did great but for now like the famed Cat Stevens said, "I must be on my way".
great job !

nice poem!

Maybe you could get someone to put it to music as it would make a good lyric too, but works alone as a poem with its nice simplicity. Hits the universal poetic rhetoric.
I also like the poetry of Soyinka.
