Here I sit, in the solace of the night, Looking up at the great big sky with stars shining so bright. The fire is crackling and slowly dying out, comforting my feelings of angst and doubt. My heart is aching in the moon's soft glow. In the morning, I'll return to the life I've grown to tolerate and know. I feel quite jealous of the peaceful breeze, Just floating around the world with a happy ease. How can the earth be so merry on a night like this? Doesn't it realize that I'm feeling so amiss? Even the moon seems to be a smiling crescent, Blissfully unaware of how I'm feeling at present. The whole world is sleeping, quiet and serene, While the storm inside is going unseen. Change is inevitable, so they say, And I've been waiting, day after day.
