A Dark Night's Dream

Updated: Jul 14, 2025

By Sumiyyah Farhat Shiraj


Looked at the sky on a dark night

Saw the stars gleaming so bright

Turned away, couldn't hold my tears

That welled inside, revealing fears


Shaked my world when I looked inside

Everything is changing outside

Broke the forces that held me back

To grasp the light gleaming through the dark


Like waves crashing at sea

It all comes back to me

A thousand wonders to see

Finally a path to be free


Again on that dark night

Stars burning with light

Heard those whispers untold

Some secrets left to unfold


Telling me that I will

Have to wait for peace to refill

To remove doubts from my heart 

And search deep down to find my part


Get rid of those sad thoughts 

The fears I so long fought 

One day I'll journey afar

To reach the brightest star
