            Hey everyone!! This came to me during my quiet time and I wrote it down. It could honestly be polished a lot but it had a tune to it that I didn’t want to mess with, so here it is anyway XD

             

            The Midnight Hour

            Holy

            Holy

            You are Holy

            in the midnight hour

            My God

            You speak and mountains move

            You breath and I do too

            You stay close when others don’t

            You’re the reason I’m still breathing

            It’s you

            It’s you.

            In the midnight hour

            when I’m chained

            You come with power

            and I’m redeemed

            and you say,

            “Come my Child”

            Oh God,

            I wanna see you smile on me

            Let it shine so bright

            that the demons fright

            and everything’s alright

            In the midnight hour.

            In the midnight hour.

            There is none like you

            and when Morning dawns

            and the lights are on

            You stay close

            even then

            even when

            the lights turn off again

            and in a heart that’s

            filled with sadness

            you keep me up

            in the middle of this madness

            when a tear could fall

            at the drop of a hat

            So I am speaking out

            into this empty stillness

            knowing you are here

            I am listening

            Quicken my ear.

            You are Holy

            Even in the midnight hour.

              My goodness, girl, that was spectacular! It honestly made me tear up a bit, it was so beautiful! It sounds like a worship song. Love it <333

                    I was just scrolling and this poem of yours Daisy and I love it.

                    Is it just me or does the poetry that comes at night the most powerful? The sort that repeats in your head until you HAVE to write it down for fear of it keeping you up all night.

                      @elanor Aww thank you girl! No I totally agree. I think night time is when we quiet our thoughts more and allow words to flow better. Everything just clicks best that way 😂

                        Yes. The major con is the lack of sleep one gets when they’re brainstorming to write something 😆

                          @daisy-torres that’s lovely!! I especially like this bit ;3

                          You stay close

                          even then

                          even when

                          the lights turn off again

                          and in a heart that’s

                          you keep me up

                          when a tear could fall

                          at the drop of a hat

                          Monsters creep
                          In the silent dark-deep
                          In the filling-eye hills
                          In the shriveled hand-keep

                              Just wanted to share a poem. Hope you enjoy 🙂

                              (Also, I posted an image of the poem, but I’m new here so if I did it wrong then oops XD.)

                              I stand beneath the trees and notice:

                                The poem sounds really cool. The pictures painted with the metaphors of the trees are cool.

                                Although while reading about the peppercorn trees it appears almost abstract. Like I can’t quite picture what your painting because I’m not sure what peppercorn trees are supposed to look like lol

                                  True true. Idk where in the country they are, but they have lots of them in California. They’re like weeping willows with reddish berries on them. They have a minty smell. I honestly don’t know how to make it any less abstract other than asking people to google it..😅😂

                                  I was literally standing under a tree outside when I started writing this thing, which is probably why it’s not about weeping willows (or some other tree that everybody knows about).
