Night Poems | Examples of Night Poetry

This night a yellow moon stalks root and branch. There’s a waving sagebrush breeze to twitch wary whiskers The star-salted fields and dark wooded islands merge in a wash of shoaling shadows.

Staring into the stratospheric abyss Cumulus clouds swiftly drift along. As I stand at a dusty precipice, The white-hot heat of the sun beating down, Microscopic gravel crunches beneath questioning feet. A flood of overwhelming emotions washes forth, Whilst a broken heart is drowning. The last words you spat at me,...

Her eyes a sapphire blue, An awesome sight to view, Her nose aristocratic, She was so charismatic, Her lips a rosy petal pink, One had to blink, Or been seen as staring, Her nature a sheer blessing.

In the silence of the night, when shadows dance on the walls of my memory, a deep longing grips me, a thirst for peace in her arms, where her gentle fingers weave my guilt into braids of forgetting, and her silence never demands answers to unspoken questions.

It speaks of loss and vermilion It speaks of everything and eternity Shadows reek of dead things n burnt dreams Shadows hide the faces of the world The truth from the light, the madness In houses of civility, things of industry In the deepest night, shadows linger, creep Shadows cover our misbegotten deeds It speaks of loss n suffering All...
