Night

Drawing by moonlight
so quiet and alone
i cannot see what i draw
i only see a vague shape of my model
writing by moonlight
so quiet and peaceful
i must wait until morning to see what the characters look like
living my night
the moonlight pours through my open window
the cool winter air so crisp so fresh fills me up
i must wait until 6 am when i greet the day
time passes at immense speed
before i know it it is 1, 2, 3, 4
i stand at my open window the temperature is warmer the sky is lighter
i listen the silence is beyond peaceful
a dog barks a car alarm sounds then nothing once more
those past sounds still penetrate the night air
everything was shocked
holding its breath it is silence once again
