Dark Night

Embrace me, dark night.
Be not my enemy, but my friend.

Wrap me in the safety of your cover.

Tease my bare skin with cold air as I allow the kiss of rain drops to awaken my will to thrive in the absence of expectation.

Remind me that when tomorrow comes, I have the strength to face the light.

Surround me with peace, carry me not to a land of painful memory, but to a future with vision.

Embrace me, dark night.
Be my hope and not my end.
