I LAUGH AT THE NIGHT

Tempestuous night

Howling winds

Like restlessness of nature

Finding it unable

To control itself.

Dawn is still dark and black

No birds chirping

No fresh breeze

Strange silence

All around

As the day waits to begin...

It is like a scene

From a Shakespearean tragedy.

But I am no longer bothered

About what may or may not happen

For in my whole being light shines

The light of her love

Which God has blessed her with in plenty.

I am fearless and strong

Like I have seldom been before.

And I owe it to the loving woman

Who never even once ignored me

Never even once taunted me

From the moment I said that I loved her...

She is one of a kind

A breed apart from the rest of her ilk

Aye she is the most special woman

And I feel I am the luckiest man alive

Because she loves me and dotes on me

Cares about me and never offends me

Even once...

She is my beloved

And I laugh at the ways of the night

Because it has failed

To make me feel lonely

And all this is because

Of the most special woman

The woman whom I love

And love to venerate

Because she loves me

Like no one else does...
