The darkness outside

The darkness outside,

It beckons,

A midnight stroll,

Oh the peace,

The freedom of the night,

Not everyone sees it that way,

As a means of escape,

When no one can see you,

Your all by yourself,

In the dark,

And no one can know the truth,

Out peeps the moon,

Shining brightly far away,

Casting a pale glow down on earth,

Enough to just light up the path,

For a moonlit stroll,

Left to be alone,

With your thoughts,

A means of escape,

Oh the darkness,

It beckons,

The night we must fear not.
