The night
It's so quiet I can only hear my thoughts
sliding out in the silence
as they jump, skip and fall
disconnectedly
in all directions

They love the nights

And so I tiredly gather them up
One by one
Putting them away on the shelves of my mind
Close my eyes
And wish for dawn

To capture and live a moment is truly living

Dreamkeeper, I like this so much. It's laid out in a way to which I can really relate. Though, I can't always get those thoughts to stay on the shelf. Have to say, too, that last line...right on!!!
