In the night

In the night

A Poem by Trivén

In the darkness of the night
here I am, alone
wandering these empty streets
pondering the question of existence

Who are we, and why are we here?
common questions indeed
with complex theories yet
so far, no answers

Walking here alone in the dark
is it forcing something in my mind
making me ask these questions
or is it just the lack of the usual stimuli

Traveling through the black night
I feel peaceful, yet unease
with its cool air stroking me tenderly
all over like a disease

Allowing travel to an imaginary land
as only the silence of the night can give
putting your mind in a not unlike meditative state
feeling connected, with a higher self

Those feelings come to me
as I walk here, in the night
alone with myself, in the dark
rest filling me, the absence of day
