when the world falls asleep

as the sky turns darker
and the stars show up

as the city gets calm
and the lights turn out

one by one, folks fall asleep
lullabies become the only speech

that's when my soul turns wide awake
and enjoys every second of the calmness

listening to the silence,
the sound of the night

feeling the emptiness,
the touch of the sky

it may be lonely there,
but I taught myself to enjoy solitude

I even find comfort in it,
in the absence of company
in the presence of the moon

in the end of the evening
want the night to come soon
