The Dead of Night

Be comforted by the night.
Let it surround you.
You shouldn't be frightened.
Nothing can hurt you.
The true monsters
Come out in the daylight,
Wearing a mask of a friend.
With kind smiles
That'll turn sinister in the end.
But in the darkness,
They'll go away.
So darling, when it's night time,
Don't be afraid.
Let the darkness creep in.
Let it hold you tight.
Let it soothe your worries.
It'll be alright.

There is beauty in the black of night.
A kind of peace
You won't find in the light.
The stillness and silence
In the dead of night,
Where your thoughts can wonder.
Where your mind can play.
A time to ponder
The little things about your day.
There is beauty in the freedom,
The freedom if the night.
Listen as it whispers,
"It will be alright."

We need the darkness to be able to appreciate the light.
Think of this when you're about to cry.
Look up at the stars;
Look at how they shine so bright.
They shine in the darkness.
They are their own light.
And when you feel like you might break,
Look up at the moon.
Be calmed by it's presence.
It's a symbol of hope even in the darkness.
Reminding you that it'll be over soon.
Reminding you that
It will be alright.
