What I See at Night

Last night was a light,

a lie that was nigh

His birth is the spurt

of peace that gave birth

And now we ensure;

the lights reassure

of His birth

Yet last night was a light

I had yet to decide

Where houses were like

the moon at night

Your light made my 

heart feel imbecile

It throbbed like a pile

of hearts in one can

Do you feel it?

Yet like your heart

Mine is a lot

The tremors I got,

how much have I lost?

And that's when I thought,

I hadn't much to lose

Since there's nothing that'll lose

When you have nothing to lose

On the birth of our Lord,

a tear might accord

Like a valentine that was none

There is no one benign

To be alone

or left alone,

a solo act to perform

If God is too kind,

will he hold you and console?
