The Pain of Night

The Light of Night is a different light It bears not what we can handle Only for the reason that we don't know why it frightens us More than knives Wishing for day Waiting The Light of Night is a peculiarity Is it the Sadness? The Loneliness? The Unknown? The Rational? The Irrational? Is it a secret truth Buried deep within the subconscious...? Are we all fools? No. Some like the dark The Sad The Lonely The Angry The Evil Are they the ones that are sane? No. WE are the sane ones The Joyful The Adventurous The Curious The Scared We are Scared of the dark Because it simply does not offer What we find Joyful. What we find Up-building. Or Fascinating. It does not offer what we find worthy of living for. We are the ones that are sane Night is for Sleep We are Awake. We Live. We Live life the way it is supposed to be lived-- In the Light of Day.
