I have always worn a new day crisp with hope,

It’s only the nights that have been hard to cope,

Like a wardrobe of choice apparels, they present,

Yet stick to my skin without my will or consent!

Look tonight; I am flaunting fear and depression,

Uncertainty of the future that’s longing progression,

It wraps my wishful heart in a blinding possession,

It strangles my courage into a failed submission!

The other night, sporting strength and confidence,

I made a vision to follow with unbreakable obedience,

Move against the odds and ahead with persistence,

Survive with dignity and help others with sustenance!

Some nights, I find myself in a robe of sadness,

I shatter for hours with self-pity and helplessness,

Love that I have lost will always be my weakness,

Spreading through my veins is a wreaking loneliness!

🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙

Rare nights, I don a warm attire of joy and gratitude,

A smile on my face blushed with a positive attitude,

I humbly admire all the blessings in my life’s servitude,

I find my true self in the sweet ambience of my solitude!

A few nights ago, in the boots of a curious explorer,

I scavenged worlds mysteries as an obsessed devourer,

Manifesting the universe secrets like a mastered conjurer,

In this fantasy-filled moment, I became a great sorcerer!

Occasionally, in a cosmic gown, I sit under the starlight,

And count the in numerous stars to my soul’s delight,

I bathe under the serene glow of the silvery moonlight,

But also absorb the calmness of dark moonless nights!

🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙

Most nights, I adorn a mundane emptiness and void,

Inflicted by a droughted mind, from thoughts I am devoid,

Numbed from all sentiments as if high on toxic opioid,

Trapped in a dark space, I choke and act paranoid!

🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙🌕🌗🌘🌖🌙

Night after night, I change into feelings that touch deep,

My only complaint is that they don’t allow me to sleep,

Is there no silken form, putting me into much-needed rest?

Will these emotions of the night forever keep me at unrest!
