Poezie
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.
