The wind dances with the leaves hand in hand on the tainted outcast branches of the trees
Casting a playful shadow on my freshly cut grass of my lawn
The odour filled my nostrils
Tickling every nerve in my nose
The roads are silent but the occasional car that steers itself careful through the narrow roads that never seems to end as the darkness of the nighttime engulfs them
Then there's the lone black cat that saunters from house to house only at night
It stops and looks up at my window
I'm not really a cat person but this one fascinated me
It's marble green eyes , so hypnotic
I zoned out into bleak nothingness
I zoned back into the moonlit box which is my room
The cat was gone and I am staring at where it once sat
I move from the window sill that stood never moving to my bed
I went and lay on my back
I Watch the ceiling like it is a tv screen showing my favourite show
My mind found peace
eventually
I hesitantly close my eyes not wanting to block out the little light that the moon provided
In that moment I realised I find the darkness pretty and I wander off into a deep sleep.
