I awoke in the middle
Of the night
And walked around
And found everything dark
And still in the silence
I beheld black curtains
Over all the mirrors
Time had stopped
Frozen in time upon the clocks

And it was then

I realized,
I was dead

But the night was
Forever young

And resuscitated by this
I became filled
With all the memories
Of who I once was
And who I imagined
Myself to one day be
All the feelings of
Being alive
Once again I feed
And,
Once again I feel
As long as this fire exists
I will have raison d’etre
As long as I do not forget

But only in the night

For only in the night,
Am I forever young

Indeed! The night gifts us with infinite possibilities and nothing limits our perceptions. If we could hold our image of youth through dawn that would be the deed per excellence.

Beautiful!

Love,
Margherita
