A poet's work is to name the unnameable, to point at frauds, to take sides, start arguments, shape the world, and stop it going to sleep.

~Salman Rushdie


Silence is the key
For a peaceful mind and soul
In the darkest night.


The author's comments:
Often people, especially kids, get nervous in the night time. But if you just rest and tell yourself that it'll be alright, you WILL be alright. :)
