Night

Shimmer -
Those hazy speckles
Above my eye

Fade -
In the distance
As day draws near

Fear -
Withholding limits
On the pounding that
Recedes within my inner ear

Here -
Now an ever constant truth
My heart though racing
Stays strong
Beating anew

Release -
All fears and hopes combined
Leave me intertwined
In the moment of solace
I have found within my mind
