In the quiet hush of evening’s spread,
When the sun dips low and the day has fled,
A velvet cloak wraps the world so tight,
Embracing the whispers of the coming night.
Oh, darkness, dear friend, so gentle and deep,
You cradle our secrets, our joys, and our sleep.
In your arms, we find solace, a moment to pause,
A canvas for dreams, where the heart gives applause.
Stars twinkle like diamonds, scattered so bright,
In your tender embrace, they dance with delight.
The moon, a soft lantern, glows silver and gold,
Telling ancient stories, both cherished and bold.
You hide not just shadows, but magic and grace,
A sanctuary where the lost find their place.
The rustle of leaves, the chirp of the night,
In your comforting shroud, everything feels right.
The glow of a fire, the warmth of a smile,
In darkness, we gather, we linger awhile.
With laughter and stories, we bond and we share,
Illuminated by friendship, a love laid bare.
For though you may seem like a cloak of despair,
You nurture the seeds of hope hidden there.
In the depths of your silence, possibilities bloom,
Each flicker of light, a promise to loom.
So let us not fear you, dear darkness, our guide,
For in your stillness, our dreams can abide.
You teach us of balance, of light and of shade,
In your quiet wisdom, our fears can be swayed.
When the dawn breaks softly, washing you away,
We carry your whispers into the day.
For inside every shadow, a story can start,
A reminder that darkness holds light in its heart.
So here's to the night, to the calm and the peace,
To the moments of stillness that never shall cease.
In darkness, we find a connection so bright,
In the dance of the shadows, we embrace the light.
