Tammy Cox Poet Lyric

The Night

The NIGHT

The sound of the train fades
slowly into the black of night 
While the dense fog and the 
rain put up a good fight 
Awakened from a dead sleep
in the middle of the night 
My eyes trying to focus
hard to regain my sight 
A dream still fresh in my 
mind of another time 
and place
Please go back to sleep 
so I can finish my race 
The sound of silence echoes 
throughout
Yet It whispers enough that 
you can hear it without 
a doubt
Prayers are restated as I
try and return to my sleep
I try real hard but my mind
is to weak
Thoughts of things happening 
around the world we hear and 
see
I think to myself that could 
be you and or me 
My eyes become heavy 
after talking to GOD one 
more time 
My body and mind relax 
and leave my thoughts 
behind 
Thank you GOD for all that 
you do 
For you are always part of
my life and I truly love you
