Ode to the night

My dark friend, you listen quietly

to all my crazy fantasies,

so soothingly you breathe

and a cocoon you weave

around my anxiety-

with gentle hands you guide me

into a world where I see

without eyes,

and hear your silent voice-

under your coat you hide

the malicious kind,

and the pure of heart find-

refuge.

Can you hear the lonely tale

of cruelty behind the veil?

Sing me your song of peace,

so I won\'t hear the desp\'rate pleas

for mercy calling,

put stardust into my eyes,

so I won\'t see the rain of tears falling-

and if those wounds I cannot heal,

those cries I cannot seal-

then, into forgetting carry me,

into a dreamland far away.
