still of the night

color of distant stars
envelopes the darkness

pouring light
in the eyes of who can see

mountain tops shadow
casting over the land below

the air's breath holding tight
a glass top lake
capturing the pouring rays of light

silence fills the ears
of who can hear

movement of time
is standing still

love in my soul
your heart knows
it's true

in the
still of the night

I like what you said above, but to be honest the whole poem is great. I know exactly what you mean about the 'still of the night' and your poem makes me want to indulge in it. cheers
