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
