Hidden Away

Night spreads out

To take her rest.

Light gives way

And I’ll confess

These words come easier

In the dark;

I have to write

This little spark.

The chains of day

Become released.

The fetters fall

Off of the beast.

So I’ll create

When ideas come.

Inspiration

Waits for none.

Dawn now breaks

As I lie here.

Light comes fast

But I won’t fear.

I’ll do my best

To seize the day,

But remember these moments

Hidden away.
