Nights, so quiet you can hear

the dead dissolving into the Earth,

Nights, so strange, a thousand eyes stare at you

through the

darkness.

Nights so cruel you feel the agony of

beasts

releasing their last breath.

Nights so erotic, the gentle breeze

feels

like a lovers touch.

Nights so eerie, behind the darkness

a sinister spirit

is watching you closely.

Nights so familiar, you can hear

the heartbeat

of the universe.

Nights so alive, you wonder

why humans are asleep.
