Silence of night

In the darkness of night

The loneliness of a fight

Staring into the wall

The mind's at a stall


Silence of night

Absence of fright

Peaceful you might say

Thoughts have come astray


Memories come aflutter

Regrets overpower

In the silence of the night

Struggle for the last sprite
