Martin Walker Poet Lyric

Late Night Embrace

I walk these streets to my own beat

The beat of my heart, the breath of the night
Its cold air braces me, gives me strength
Gives me substance and being.

With each inward breath comes the cold
I feel it run through me, cooling my blood

I feel the clarity it brings
The feel of reality

I stare at the sky as I walk, 
Basking in the glow of the night
It cools my blood and warms my soul

The depth of the night
The silence of the night
The feeling of true peace
The Peace of being alone
And yet of the solidarity

It is the air I breath, the moon I embrace and the night in which I bask
