Dark Of Night Poems - Poems about Dark Of Night

Lying Awake in Dark of Night

My internal clock is a bane to me
waking me from dreams of paradise
thrusting me into life's stark reality
not allowing sleep when closing my eyes

No matter how many hours of sleep I need
I wake between three and four o'clock
Eyes wide open, blood red as if they bleed
I lie awake, listening to the clock... tick tock

My thoughts

dark of night

It was a warm balmy night very peaceful
the woods slept soundly the moon shone 
In the quiet stepped out a unicorn flowing
silver mane it paused sniffing the air warily

Satisfied it started to cavort around gayly
soon a stag joined in and a fairy both dancing
They called to friends to join in all stepping high
Dancing and cavorting

Wanderer In the Dark of Night

I am a wanderer in the dark of night,
visiting when you are helpless, in your sleep.
Your darkest dreams with you, I will reunite.

All your thoughts are mine to pillage as I might
there is no hidden corner I cannot creep;
I am a wanderer in the dark of night

Dirty rotten secrets hidden out of sight;
no matter where

In the Dark of Night

Sun sets and life begins to ease
The curtains closes on cue
Everything goes down 
As we do

Life darkens
and our lives begin in shade
Dreaming of what we have done
And ambitions we've made

We are always promised tomorrow
For their is always another sunset
Always another day we rise

So we thank life
For waking us up
To another day we survive

End of Light, Dark of Night

In the days  
New and old
Hearts folly 
Stories untold
Happiness rides 
The westward winds
Misery joins dangling 
Over the depths of sin
The Angel's storm gliding 
Through the vertical horizon 
Bringing tears from the moon 
Who's secretly hiding now
Approaching hope with
Her wings of glory
Remorse floating 
In her breeze
Forgiveness 
Gratitude 
Following
The pack
It's safe
To say that's 
All we have

Monumental America

MONUMENTAL AMERICA
(c)11/1/20, Iris Sankey-Lewis

Monumental America, you said, "In God We Trust."
this super power thing of yours won't rust
the nerve of change to rearrange
internal wealth all by itself gives clue
beauty is in the eyes of Sages, good as new.
You've birth the good, the bad, and the ugly
on grounds of mighty enterprise; semi holy
oh, pray those carefree

The Dark of Night Intensifies

The dark of night intensifies 
People’s frights

The dawn of light illuminates 
People’s sights

The twilight of vesper lights
Divides the wrong from the right

In the Dark of Night

i sent my prayers out to the wind
doubting anyone was listening
i called out to the universe
in each and every direction
'twas then I heard in echo
the likes of angel voices
midst silence of the night
the songs of whippoorwills

In Dark of Night

Unending strip of ebony darkness
	lying lost unseen under moonless black sky
it’s beginning and end upon the land
	lost in black shadows cannot be seen

deeper darkness moves within
	flowing smooth curves barely half seen
eerily growing closer to me
	silently without sound in the dark

a soft whisper of treads on road
	barely heard whispering near
dark black form take shape near me
	rushing

In Dark of Night

Loud sirens echo in the driveway...they are here!
In dark of night, trancelike, they wrap and bring him out.
This nightmare now unfolds a real-life horrid scene...
his ashen, frightened face fades neath the bright, full moon.
Joined in with sounds of crying...sirens wail again.
Dear God...let him survive this heart attack tonight.

Dark of Night

Dark of night; Angels in flight.
Darkness hues; coloring all of my views.
Take these stakes, the cause of my heartbreak.
I can see Home; so why must I stay,
In a place where everything is taken away.
Darkness hues; stakes are higher,
The darkness is not my funeral pyre.
Home calls its child to stay; in an attempt to take the

In the Dark of Night

N-ew dawn has turned
I-nto a warm daylight; 
C-lear view at noon
H-as set the dusk
A-right.

J-ust wait for the twilight, 
A-fternoon is passing by; 
N-ever ignore the sunset, 
E-venfall meets the sky.

P-ray before you sleep, 
A-nd then turn off the light; 
D-ay fourteen of September stays
I-n the dark of
N-ight.

God Sees In the Dark of Night

G-od sees in the dark of night, 
E-ven though the evil hides; 
R-egardless of the place, 
M-adman is clear to Lord's eyes. 
I-n the dark of night, 
L-ord God sees the deep secret; 
A-lthough the matter is secluded, To Him there's nothing as private. 

A-ll things twelfth of June 
B-ecome visible and bright; 
D-on't doubt

In the Dark of Night

The night was strangely hushed and cloaked
by the clouds scuttling across the silvery moon.
The breeze made the night air feel chilled,
yet her flanks were covered in sweat
as she strained, muscles quivering and chest heaving.

It had to be quick as she could hear predators
for now in the far distance yet moving in.
Still she strained the legs

Dark of Night

My hopes lay dying,
     caught in webs the night had spun;
          will they hide the morning ray?
I calmed my crying,
     dwelled on dawn's bright golden sun;
          born again- the
