Midnight
Midnight is a princess
With many friends in the sky
Stars, moonlight and breeze
Gone to meet them
And refuses to return,
Leaving me alone in the wilderness
For many days she embraced me
Giving me the solace of cozy sleep
Being selfish I kept her captive
But midnight is not my prisoner
Slowly slowly hours pass
Night walking with gentle paces
Darkness all around, drowned in fatigue
Seeking the sleep in silence and solitude
Moments move, thoughts fill the void
Days come closer, from childhood to present
Filled with yore, frozen and melted
With mind full of clouds, dense and thin
Restless and impatient, changing the sides
Towards completing one more day
My life long companion
Midnight is inherently kind
Mild, whispering and soothing
Emerging after the half night
In beauty and grace, serenity and calm
Helping me in my journey
Through the starry passage
Far from uncertainty and dreams
Lying in her loving lap waiting for dawn
I bid her adieu
