night is for sleeping

Night is for sleeping,

not worrying, or weeping.

 

Night is for dreaming,

for healing, believing.

 

It gives itself over

to Sun for

safe~keeping

 

Night is for subconsciousness,

it’s sorting, and up~keeping.

 

Night is for deliverance~

 

Night is for Sleeping.

  1. This repetition of the phrase ‘night is’ is truly hypnotic: I trust you, the speaker of these words, with your calm tones: they bring a sense of peacefulness and reassurance to these words. This is a gentle, powerful, beautiful piece of writing.
