Night
The sum of all fears, An enveloping darkness,that covers the world like a thick black syrup.
Night
The opposite of day, It traps you in the light,And you fear to step out of the light.
Night
Is not evil, But where love and warmth lacks, it is the negative of day.
Night
Where your wildest dreams seem ten times more real.
Night
It closes you in creating the illusion of fear.
But the night is not all bad.
For there are the stars...
