THE NIGHT IS MINE...

Stars are up, moon is high
Masks have been put away for the night.
Careers, relationships-- all forgotten
I am just me, what else matters?
Those hidden pleasures, those unseemly delights
That once again make me feel alive.
The cloak of annonimity that darkness brings
Is a comfort of which one seldom sings.
Deepest fears, smallest secrets
all come to the fore, explored, uninhibited.
Laugh or cry, choose to live or die--
nobody interrupts me-- for the night is mine.
