During the Night

Listen to this. It's written by one of my students.



During the Night


The clock indicates midnight
I left my bed at last

I turn on the light
And break the peace to find you, the lastest.

Then I light my cigarette
Smoke fills in my heart
and it makes everything unclear, like fog, like a dream.

I'm opening my eyes, but I can't wake up
from the nightmare.

I just breathe in the reality
and breathe it out immeditely.

When the sun makes shadows again
eventually, I go back to my bed
only to cover myself.

- John.
