The World of Night

Tiny orbs of light, fireflies, buzz around a tall oak

A silvery moon hangs in the sky

Tonight is the night

Stars dot the sky like glitter on a warm, blue carpet

Dogs bark, saying goodnight

Tonight.. it is tonight

Lights turn off throughout the people's houses

And the world is almost sleeping

In the world of night

The world in which we live

In all its beauty, it's cruelty

We ponder strange things, stranger they become

When you encounter the world of night

This world is a dystopia, disguised and sugarcoated

There is a burning hatred here, hatred and fear

People are cruel, with their hearts of stone

It's as if they feel nothing..

Or as if they are just unable to

It's a sad thing, really.

Never feeling love, sympathy, compassion, or joy.

Being absolutely emotionless

That's just how people are...

The world of night is a different place

This world is a utopia
