Everyone’s asleep and I couldn’t be happier.
Im smiling.
It’s a real smile
Indents either side.
There’s nobody else up
Just me.

The night brings dark
And
The dark brings me light.
I’m free.
Free of anger , free of fear.
Tomorrow lies with the rest but
The Now
is with me.
Everyone’s asleep and I couldn’t be happier.

The now greets me with a warmth,
A familiarity.
I’ve seen it before
Just not as clear
Not as pure.
It’s just me and it.
Everyone’s asleep and I couldn’t be happier.

There’s no distraction , no new posts online.
Nowhere for me to go.
No thing for me to do.
And here I sit
Entertained , fulfilled.
The evening is devoid of life yet
Full of hope.
Everyone’s asleep and I couldn’t be happier.

I have to lie down
Now , The Now has told me its truths
It won’t last long
All will be forgotten soon.
After all
Everyone’s asleep.

— The End —
