Moment By Myself

Under this asphalt sky
i sit pondering life
enjoying these quiet hours of the night
by myself
no unwanted guests 
to throw me off my thoughts
I sit for hours 
then miraculously 
the dawn breaks through the night
like a knife
awakening every critter
the birdless sky
begins to fill with life and sound
I am embracing every moment
