Soft moonlight shines through the trees,

Illuminating hidden places, casting shadows on the ground,

What could be out there? Surely the whole world isn’t sleeping.

Thoughts and fears races round and round.

I shut the curtain, shudder at the thought,

Terrified of the unknown.

But take a moment, soak in the darkness,

That fear can be challenged, when your own strength is shown.
