Night Murmurs

In the darkness

I sit and wait

Wait for you to come

And tell me why

I just sit and stare

Looking at the stars

See them twinkling brightly

Smiling down on me

I am glad that I’m here

Waiting for your presence

But the darkness is cold

And the night murmurs are loud

But I will sit and wait

I will reach out my hand

I will open up my heart

And will await the peace
