Dawn at Midnight

Folder: 
Personal (Hope)

I think best in 

the middle of the night

with the lights off.

 

The house is quiet;

the city asleep,

and my mind awake.

 

All the distractions 

of the world melt away,

and I am alone with my thoughts.

 

There is clarity

in a restless mind,

peace in insomnia.

 

Everything comes to light

in the complete darkness:

dawn at midnight.
