The mystic secret of the night

by Princealexander   Oct 12, 2015


The mystic secret of the night
Embraces us and holds us tight
In its evasive grip of freak,
Which treats one's life with danger's trick.

Night wears covers of the dark,
Full of adventures to embark
On scary trip, set by the fate,
To risky pleasures we await.

We step, we dive into the night
To lose what holds us at day light,
To free dark corners of the soul,
To shut the conscience and control.

And every face looks like a mask,
Face painted by the dusk to bask.
But may be really night reveals
The truth of us, which day conceals ?

    Great concept Alex. Enjoyed the poem.

    'But may be really night reveals
    The truth of us, which day conceals ?'

    Words Wonderfully portrayed the fact, that our souls the reality might be coming awake in the night when the body is at rest. It takes the nights darkness to bring out the reality of our truth which hides in the days stark light.

    Thank you.

    A great poem with a lovely, flowing rhyme scheme that was a pleasure to read.
    I love the message that night reveals in us what the daytime conceals. The idea that - in the dark - people can be revealed more clearly. Clever.
    All the very best

    Hello,

    A nice poem which holds its mystery well...

    Halloween and the act of knocking on doors donned in masks and announcing the question:Trick or Treat.

    Well done.
