The Heart of the Night

I. Fire

Flaming at the center of an undying universe it consumes
Twisting in ignited bliss it sparks, sizzles and then explodes
Hypnotising tendrils flare and collapse into the heat of the night

II. Rain

Trembling droplets glide softly down windows of freedom
The wavering rain suddenly floods the ephemeral forever
Clouds release liquid awash with the healing of the night

III. Trains

Hurtling towards its destination it increases momentum
A rhythmic beat rides the tracks while the engines heave
Moving us as it plunges through the heart of the night
