A Walk at Night

A Walk at Night

I love a walk in the darkness.
I enjoy the solitude and quiet.
I truly partake of the blindness.
Often I feel like an evening bandit.

It is surreal as if a shadow.
I feel as if I am invisible.
Within my body I am aglow.
I feel so confident, so agile.

Never are my moments shattered.
I pretend I am a super hero.
I know I’ll never be battered.
Nothing will curb my ego.

Most are frozen with constant quivers.
Fear of the unknown takes over.
Those folks are mere actors.
They are fearful of their past blunders.

I partake of the ever present haunting.
My confidence is never shaken.
To me this state is not disarming.
I find it a time to be prepared for action.

Pity those whose fears can’t be shed.
They don’t recognize this simple pleasure.
They spend those moments in total dread.
I love a walk in the darkness.
