Premium Member 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...

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...

Premium Member 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...

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...

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...

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...

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. Sandra M. Haight 1989...He did...thank, God....

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...

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...

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...
