Insomniac

I lay awake through dark nights
Unseduced by slumbers sweet whispers
My silent howls rain down by the moonlight
I am the sleepless cloud that drifts the sky.
I sit on my bed, rejoicing in the infinite silence
i’m the only person in the world
I stare out the window watching shadows dance in the night,
Watching stars peer through the thick dark, watching
Tree branches sway slightly in the gentle wind under the
Pale lamplight. There's nothing more beautiful than the silent
Wonder I gaze at from my tiny observatory, I like to lift
The window up, feel the cold breeze on my skin, watch the
Goosebumps slowly emerge across its landscape.
 I am part of the night
I am the silence
 I utter not a word through to the morning.
I wait to see the twilight dawn, a stunning gift for unopened
Eyes to never see. I watch the twilit sky gracefully tumble away
The sun is born from the earth anew, i watch it soar up from the edge
Of nothingness, casting its warm rays out like heaven’s archangels
To wake sleeping souls.
but me, I am sleepless and I am here to witness
The world plunge into the beautifully serenity of night and be reborn
From quiet ashes of that dark paradise to grace us with the warmth of life
