Tranquillity

the stillness of night
is where creativity thrives
freneticism and coffee
keeping the idea alight

the softness of night
is where romance thrives
safety and belonging
keeping the love alight

the warmth of night
is where friendship thrives
comfort and conversations
keeping the bond alight

the darkness of night
is where anxiety thrives
overthinking and stress
keeping the thoughts alight

but still
i am at home
in the blue hours

i live for the night
and it welcomes me
like an old friend
with an embrace
