night , the mystical witch

did you ever wonder why the poet loves the night ?​ 

did you ever ask the writer why he craves the night?​ 

have you ever noticed the beauty of that one shiny star?​ 

have you ever knocked on nights dark door?​ 

have you looked for secrets in nights soul?​

did you ever notice the depth, that night has in store?​

​

i guess you haven't .......​

​

but if you ever look close you'll see that night is a lovers chaperone  ...​

it is a child's beautiful dream....​

it is the beginning of a quest and the end of a dream ...​ 

it is a never ending maze that doesn't begin and has no end ...​ 

it can turn tears to gold ...​

it holds all secrets and never bolts a door ....​ 

it is deeper than the oceans and darker than the seas ...​ 

it is the passion of the sinners and the desire of the saints ....​ 

it is the greatest of the mysteries yet simpler than any maze ....​

​

if you look hard enough , you'll find the key , it will unlock nights door .... ​

yet when you try , it will not open nights soul .......​

​

what did you do ? 

what did you do ?​

            night laughs at you ....​ told you it makes no sense .....​

night is like a witch ,

friend to some , 

foe to some ....​ 

if you be wary , it will show you some of its treasures ...​

​

if you look close , you will see beyond your dreams , beyond your realm .......  ​
