Night

People fear the night
Why?
When the night is so welcoming

The night is my friend,
A friend who doesn't judge me
Or expect anything at all

The night is not a monster
The monster sleeps at night
Night when it's only
Truly safe

It welcomes me with a smile
Never hating
Never loving
Always offering a silent comfort

Everything at night is different
At night I see the truth in you
The fake
The fraud
The monster in all of you

Night when everything is peaceful
When only I can see my scars

The time when my guard is down
My true self is formed
A little girl filled with hate
And even more pain

When anger and rage
Is replaced with sin drenched dreams

When the innocent have no more pride
Finally the can cry

People fear the night
Why?
When the night is my friend
