the night

Slowly sounds are silenced

The birds song ends

Motors sound further away

Gently blown leaves rustle

The darkness subdues the night

Stars mapping the sky

How does my star shine

Contemplating the ending day

Sighing regrets

Thoughts consume the night

The thinnest line of a new day

Energy piercing the sky

The bird song begins

Sound replenishes the sky

Goodbye to the night
