Midnight Chats

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why do you wait til darkest night

And wake me from my sleep
To teach me what I need to hear,
The words that I should keep?

Why not connect in broad daylight

When I am wide awake;
Why wait until I ache for sleep?
Have you some point to make?

Of course, I spend days on the run,

With chaos in my wake,
And trying to get through all that
Would be a big mistake.
 
Then, in the evenings when I pray,
It’s all about my needs.
There isn’t much time you can plant
Those thought provoking seeds.

So that leaves us with midnight chats,

When my mind’s still and clear,
And you can speak to me and know
That I’ll listen and hear.
