silent night by Alistair Chong
books will turn
pages flip
while oil burns
in a midnight shift
silence sings
children sleep
cold drifts in
on padded feet
and still time will not
stand still for me
"Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it, like my heart is just going to cave in."
