Night
8/13/03

I am Night.

Sister of Dawn and Twilight.
Daughter of Sun and Moon.
Wife of Sleep.
Mistress of Sleep's brother, Death.
Mother of Darkness.
Passion and Love, friends at my right.
Sorrow and Pain, friends at my left.

Sky makes up my clothing.
Sun, and Stars make up my jewelry.
Planets make up my crown.

Your dreams are my wishes.
Your nightmares are my fears.

When you cry yourself to sleep,
I take your tears and make them stars.
When you moan into the night from passion,
Or scream in distress and hurt,
Your sounds clothe my friends.

Sorrow and Pain, friends at my left.
Passion and Love, friends at my right.
Mother of Darkness.
Mistress of Sleep's brother, Death
Wife of Sleep.
Daughter of Sun and Moon.
Sister of Dawn and Twilight.

I am Night.

I can hear a beautiful Gothic score to this read...  I like your definitions.  This would be well read aloud for a Halloween open-mic.
