One Long Night

Hushed whispered and crackling flames

Marshmellows sweetening the air

One long night, out in who knows where


Tucked in bright tents

Dappling the field

The fire is out, not a sound is near


Strange creatures howl

And birds fly in pairs

One long night, out in who knows where


You hear snuffling outside the tents walls

Unable to breath, you make yourself small

There you sit the rest of the night, your body frozen but your soul alive


Heart racing depleats as the morning sun rises

It scares all away, no more suprises

You pack up your things, tossing them without care

Never again a long night, out in who knows where
