How the night calls me
so intensely dark
So intriguing.

The blackness without
sets my mental wheels
to turning.

I can feel the air vibrating
against my skin
so soft.

I can see the stars shining
so high and far
so close.

I can smell the air calling
the night wind
fragrant.

The highway in the distance
humming softly
like blood.

The blood in my veins
wishes to join
to travel.

To become part of the night
to observe all
a shadow.

There then suddenly
I am gone
forevermore.
