The Night
The Night
Peace,
this is my world.
No one
but me, and my friends.
The stars
smile down at me as equals, not superiors.
They
accept me as I am and expect no more.
I accept
that in the beggining they where here when I was not and that they owe
me nothing.
Because
of these things there is respect among us.
The Night
Peace,
this is my world.
No one
but me, and my friends.
The moon
shines even though it has no lights.
It takes
what has been given to it by the sun and gives it back to us that respect
it.
It has
nothing, but still finds something to give.
We could
learn from this, but we don't.
"People
want more", this is the rule they live by.
Why can't
we learn to give.
I accept
these things and there is respect between the moon and myself.
The Night
Peace,
this is my world.
No one
but me, and my friends.
The rain
comes and I listen to what it says.
There
is a sadness in the world, that can't be washed away by hurricanes or storms.
That
is why it likes to rain at night.
When
all the bad and hatefullness seems to sulk away into the shadows and not
be seen.
I share
the night with the rain because we see
the same
things wrong and there is a friendship between us. There is respect.
The Night
Peace,
this is my world.
No one
but me, and my friends.
Tonight
my kinsman are howling.
They
are talking to the planet and the shadows.
We all
see the things arounds us and the wrongs that are done to us and each other.
We ask
when the anger and the hatred will end.
We do
not know the answer. But since we share these thoughts and feelings,
we are brothers.
And we
were taught to respect family.
The Night
Peace,
this is my world.
No one
but me, and my friends.
And there
is respect in the night.
