Nothing
#WritcoPoemPrompt82
At night when I lay in bed,
As I drift towards my sleep,
When the eve becomes shadowy red,
My slumber has begun deep,

I leave behind the day's travail,
And my mind begins to roam,
Through memories that oft assail,
And dreams of places yet unknown.

The world outside begins to fade,
As my breathing slows and stills,
The darkness becomes a glade,
Where my mind is free to wander at will.

As I surrender to the night,
And let my consciousness drift away,
My thoughts take flight,
In a realm where I can safely stray.

And as I dream of distant lands,
And of adventures yet to come,
I know that with gentle hands,
The night will carry me safely home.
