Summary: I went for a walk before it got light. Didn't mean to, thought it would be light. Still, it was magical....




A new day's promise,
Never found,
In sleepy beds at noon
Nor hanging on to
Endless nights
In a cold and lonely room
Sleep at dusk
and dream of magic
wonder yet unborn
Rise and smile in
Darkness bright
And welcome in the dawn
