Let me loose tonight,

To the darkness around

Subsiding all the work

that life demands,

I want to forget them all,

for once.

Let me embrace my tiredness

let me feel without hope,

And let me loose

to my unproductiveness.

 

To this universe,

I am a mere spec of dust,

Tonight, I don't wish for any more identities, just be.

Let me just settle to a place,

Untapped by any spirit or human race.

To struggle through and survive

this nocturnal time,

Tonight, let me keep,

all of my insecurities on the line.

 

I am aware

of the ethics of this society and

the philosophies engraved in scriptures,

But tonight, let me step away from the wisdom

imbued in all of these preachers.

Let me be free,

and allow my spirit to explore,

The nurturing realms tonight.

Let me hide away from

every judgmental sight,

Even from the judgments

I place on my might.

 

Broken, seeking trust anew,

My path ahead seems unclear and rough.

For even though my vision is clouded

And I can't see His presence around,

I still see a tiny reflection of my inner strength

In the waters of this daunting ground.

A ray of hope surrounds my spirit,

Like a firefly, roaming around. So,

Let me embrace this quiet tonight,

And deep dive into my psyche's existing plight.

As I am hopeful to wake up renewed and refreshed for the life that starts at dawn,

Hoping to hold myself free and strong.
