 </div><p></p>In contrast to my childhood fears<br>
The dim of the dark is where my serenity rests<br>
Solace is ever found<br>
Where all is out of sight<br>
As even the most minute miniature<br>
Is cloaked in the deep<br>
Of a pitch-black atmosphere.<br>
In the night<br>
I tend to delight!
<p>To the thoughts of the world,<br>
Comes sorrow in the night<br>
But to the heaven within me:<br>
After the rays of the scorching sun,<br>
I find genuine glee by the moon-glow.<br>
In the night,<br>
I tend to delight!</p>
<p>What you deem nightmares,<br>
I call foolish dreams<br>
Because I swallow them<br>
Into the guts of my spirit.<br>
In the night<br>
I tend to delight!</p>
<p>I can run swiftly along a boulevard<br>
Without the fear of being overrun<br>
I can sing soulfully<br>
When the wind is my only audience<br>
That carries the flow of my pitch<br>
To the angels for recording,<br>
And to the jinns for gyration<br>
I can mine deeply<br>
Into the bedrock of my feelings<br>
To return with a gemstone<br>
Of an outstanding array of diction.<br>
In the night<br>
I tend to delight!</p>
<p>Upon my rift with the day<br>
I warmly embrace the apology of the night<br>
‘Cause the ghost that scares thee away<br>
Is the lullaby that lures me to sleep<br>
After the hectic state of the daylight,<br>
Comfort intersects with peace of mind.<br>
In the night<br>
I tend to delight!</p>
<p>You may say I’m nocturnal<br>
After all, it’s not unnatural<br>
Even when it comes to being spiritual,<br>
At this time,<br>
Most prayers meets their approval<br>
This time, I converse with nature<br>
This time, I get the invisible picture<br>
And this time, I see beyond the future.<br>
In the night<br>
I tend to delight!</p>
