Dawning Nights

There are some nights    
      
Sleepless Nights      
Ruthless Knights      
 
Nights when you despise self      
For things you've done or couldn't.      
Bereft of penitence, deprived of absolution   
 
Nights when you are not like yourself  
Do not like self    
       
Life's like a fly on wall   
waiting to be swatted      
       
       
***      
       
Let the cruel night pass      
for there's a dawn, eager and naked      
       
***      
       
There will be more nights      
       
Nights like Carnivals,      
Sacred Sins Galore.      
Enchant & Embrace      
The wholly nights in you, holy like thou.        
       
       
Life will be like babies giggles
