Hypatia
Now that it's gone, I miss the night, Now that the only thing left is light, And something else, neither night nor day, Maybe everyone cheers 'hooray', But I miss the night, because it's like me, And when it is dark, is when I best see, Maybe the world, has become too bright, And the one that is quiet never gets heard, And the ones that are awkward, dismissed as mere nerds, I once thought quiet the absence of sound, But learned it's the space where small sounds can be found, I once thought dark was the absence of light, But it is the place where star light is bright, The quiet, the dark, the dreams once embraced me, They let me feel safe in a world that erased me, Now that it's gone, I miss the night, Now that the only thing left is light
