THE NIGHT
I was tired of running,
And now wanted to rest,
No matter how much I run,
It all just seemed to go waste.

I glanced back at the path I came,
And found , it had already faded,
The night which I was always afraid of,
Seemed to have already invaded.

I decided to stop running,
And stand their and face,
The night slowly crept,
And took me in its dark embrace.

Providing a faint light of hope,
Assuringly shone the moon,
As slowly the night made its way,
In its dark black shoon .

It's dark , it's creepy , it's scary,
These were just sayings , it seems,
Cause to me this night ,
Seemed to behold much more peace.

But soon I realised,
That much it never haunted,
Atleast not more then ones,
Who always judged , compared and taunted.

When it approached me,
It already came with its dark side,
Unlike this fake world ,
It had nothing to hide .

No truth , no lie,
It just has a peaceful silence,
It doesn't promise , it doesn't assure,
Just sits beside with its darkness.

No expectations , no disappointment,
Nothing it ever expects,
Just silence , peace and darkness,
Seem to be it's only aspects.

The darkness follows quitely,
With just silence in the way,
I now love this night more ,
And no longer wish for the day.
