So much depth in just 3 lines, the night is when I feel trully awake. As a night person this poem inspires me!

A beautiful, succinct poem that brilliantly expresses that night feel very short depriving us of the vital rest we need for a long stressful day. For all of us, night is always a safe harbor, yet so fleeting. Cleverly written.
