Only in the Night

Only in the night do I ever feel so alive
And when I look up at the stars
I can feel
I can hear
As my heart beats with enthusiasm.
And the moon
The moon’s reflection in my eyes
Brings light to my dreams
Breaking my inhibitions
And leaving behind pieces of guilt.

I ran through the rain once.
I looked up at the sky.
I looked down at myself.
My t-shirt sticking to my body.
My body filled with elation.
Then, in the darkness roared
Thunderous lion for the world to hear
And I roared along side him,
Letting all of my emotion wash away
Away with the rain
Away with the night
