Sacred nights

in #poetry8 years ago

The most beautiful part of the night

is the silence. 

the distant in, out, in, out 

the slow car driving past, throwing patterns of light on our walls,

the whispered talk and murmur, 

the neighbours night time television

advertisements and infomercials,

bleeding through the cracks in the wall 

to remind us how sacred our world is.
