Listen out at night

There is a twirling tap

Around midnight

It swivels and speaks

In its tiny voice

First it wants out

Bit by bit coming around

The one that needs to speak

Will come tonight

As it wonders about life

Fear and hope mixing together

Wrapping it all up

Into a tight knot

Tears running out

Need to get them down

Talking in the dark

To my own heart

It listens as I listen

Closer bounding around

Needing someone to hear me out

Just close enough until…

I answer back.
