The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

The night is so peaceful

so calm and quiet.

The crickets chirp softly

the traffic purring in the background.

Though peaceful,

the night can be an enemy.

Not physically, though there is that

but mostly emotionally.

I have been there before

but am now looking there from afar.

Crickets chip encouragements

though their pleas fall on deaf ears.

The traffic purrs constantly

though the mind works erratically.

The night is so peaceful

so calm and quiet…

until a siren is heard

breaking the magic

forcing the mind back to the body

the body doesn’t know what to do.

The mind now wanders to and fro

never pausing, always busy.

No longer is the land so far away

but is now right at my feet.

The night was so peaceful

so calm and quiet…

Now full of noise and thoughts

noise and thoughts that never cease.

The crickets still chirp their encouragements

but the ears are full of noise.

The traffic still purrs

but the mind is full of thoughts.

What happened to the night

that was so peaceful, calm, and quiet...
