Night Falls

Capturing hope, capturing light.

By Shannon MoriarityPublished 9 years ago 1 min read

Night falls

chasing the sun

and enveloping the warmth

that kissed our skin

not moments ago.

I used to be afraid

of the night

falling through the sky,

capturing hope, capturing light.

But now,

I find solace

in the cold arms of night falling,

crashing above.

For I fall into you,

keeper of the sun's embrace.

And the night falling,

doesn't seem so scary.
