Night promised peace

Lost at sea,

I was lulled by silence.

What if I let go?

Among the waves,

I abandoned all thoughts

To hold on to my spirit.

Stranded in solitude,

I cast myself away

From worldly matters.

Because night promised peace.

"It is time," it said,

"To leave this life and embrace infinity."
