Late Night Thoughts Poem by khirishka albury

You know those nights
Those nights you feel all alone
When everyone else is sleeping
And you're idle
Energetic
Or just weeping

Those nights that make you think
Think about the world
And your life
And everything going on

Some weird thoughts pass through your mind
Don't they
You understand things more clearly
You feel smarter
You understand better

Your emotions may run
You may get sad
Happy
Or even mad

What is it about those late nights that make us wonder
Makes us seem interested
Makes us seem like an intellectual
Makes us think? ? ?

Is it the peace and quiet
The darkness
The feeling that you're looking out into nothing

Those late nights help to solve our problems
Help to comfort our lives
Help just to add a little more peace

When you finally go to sleep and wake up
You'd be thinking
Wow!
I seemed kind of smart last night
But are you really?

Is it the power of the late nights
Or is it just the only time we take to think
To relax
To really look at our surrounding and understand them

The power of the late nights? ? ?
The power of the brain? ? ?
O r the power of the heart? ? ?
