The night breathes�
The call
Deep inside the human animal
Awakens
A howl�a growl�a prowl
Travels through the course of your veins
Your soul ripples�
Breathe
The fire,
The passion of the forgotten hunter
And look up
Into the eyes of your prey�
Realize that you may actually be the hunted�
Can you not taste
The energy?
The Night Breathes

You tremble�
You want
To taste
It�
But it escapes you�
Will you pursue,
Feeling your heart in each breathless breath?
Will you sit, bathed in darkness,
And silently watch through translucent eyes?
Or will you just
Break out
And run laughing into the night?
How about all three?
Listen�
Can you hear it?
The night is breathing�
Aren't you too?
