Night [Poem]

Night

Darkness, shadows, cold, and candles;
Pinpricks of light;

They fill the night;
Dancing like fireflies;

Oh sister;

Why must they not see; the beauty of my night?

They see it; they do
I love it, too

But they sleep
They do not see
They sleep

I work all night, sleep in your day
That my night be perfect in every way

Yet still; they do not see
They sleep
They do not see

I see, we see

No
You do not see
Every day; I live my night
Alone is my plight
But every night; they do not see

I rise, they fall
You rise, they rise

Your moon shines bright

But nothing compared to your might

They adore thee; every day
They follow thee; in every way

But no more

I will not stand

It is time for the night;
To become something grand
