Tender Is The Night

Tender is the night
And all the people sleeping under
Glass walls cage us all
Lips open and close
And produce sound
Meaning is in the mind
Eyes become interpreters
And we are misled

Triumph is in chaos
Chaos that shatters
And draws blood crystals
Crystals that shine in a reddening dusk
Dusk that closes in the arms of  morning
And parts in tears

Tender is the night
And all the people sleeping under
Silent dreams whence calm comes from
That silence noise
And settle on wet grass
Only to turn the world
A deep shade of purple
And recede unto the unconscious
