Night Sky

Been three nights, 

I've been disappearing in the dark.

The sound of my own footsteps

surrounds me from every side.

My days are tiring 

but my nights are calm,

I've been smiling the whole time,

while I disappeared to the dark.

In my place

dark will be dangerous for women,

but I'm a man.

I'm afraid that this night

will vanish 

through the light

that comes from random houses.

I prefer the night.

I crave for its silence.

Been three nights,

I've been walking with these

lovers 

in front of me,

behind me,

switching places now and then.

Their love story is not

like that of Juliet's.

Their love story is different than

what love is known now.

Their love is a sky

full of colours and stars.

The one sky I've been looking

up to for nights.

The clanking of the chain

defeats the peace in me,

which comes back after I

regain my serenity.

I watch the lovers as they walk.

I love how contrasting they are.

As the chains clank,

they kiss,

in the middle of the night

where everyone can see them

but nobody's there.

I think of my life

and then I smile.

How worse can my days become?

How beautiful can be my nights?
