Sweet Surrender

Dawn allures me, but it's the dusk I endure,
Darkness, I have fallen in love with,
Night has befriended me,
The silence of the night says a thousand things,
As I gently surrender in its arms.

It's the deep night that I long for,
When darkness nurses my dreams,
Humming the sweetest tune, until dawn unfolds.
But I await with fondness for the light to fade, 
To embrace the dark in all its beauty, I do crave.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
