Night Life

I am alive at night,

when it is a dark paradise.

I am only conscious then,

the time when I pick up my pen.

I only survive,

when I give my words life.

I only breathe,

when the light subsides.

Seems a lot of creative folk are a night owl :) The nighttime has an energy of its own and can be intriguing and inspiring...

You have truly said that when you pick up your pen you are conscious. I really do feel that writing solaces us most of the times and reading such a good poem is making me feel solaced now. ☺
