The black night’s silence is loud, so loud And you must bend your heart to hear so loud Dried oak leaf flutters through the darkness and caresses earth with a rattled kiss so loud Pulse beats slowly for nothing excites so loud Calm night a spring compressed but still so still Muffled bent wing of an insect darting on its errand harvest so loud Stars bright and bold twinkle, crackling with emotion so loud My mother passed and I thought of my dead father so loud, so very loud Memories in the black night should end forever  but never are lost so loud, so loud.

Memories in the Black Night
The black night’s silence is loud, so loud And you must bend your heart to hear so loud Dried oak leaf flutters through the darkness and caresses earth with a rattled kiss so loud Pulse beats slowly for nothing excites so loud Calm night a spring compressed but still so still Muffled bent wing of an insect darting on its errand harvest so loud Stars bright and bold twinkle, crackling with emotion so loud My mother passed and I thought of my dead father so loud, so very loud Memories in the black night should end forever  but never are lost so loud, so loud.
