Nils Teodor
It is true that thoughts
are heard more loudly in silence
but if you do not believe in them
and just give them space to be
while being silent yourself
they soon disappear
and no need for fear

Oh Ken,
It is so beautiful, and so true.
Night does bring the sounds of thoughts aloud to make you hear them
(((hugs)))
Love,
Zoya.

Congrats on Editor's Choice Ken, more than well deserved.
As a night worker, I have experienced "the chilly watches of the night," and more besides. I loved your haunting write but have to say that the only thing to fear...is mankind. Especially when he works in the nightime.

I love the silence of the dawn and when the night is silent.
I enjoyed this poem. I think when we get older our mind tends to wake us up. Simple yet profound.
