Silent Nights made me realize,

Where I was wrong and where I was right,

Forget those days of tiny fights,

Those days of having little bites,

We swayed away like flying kites,

Silent Nights made me realize,

What was dumb and what was wise.


What is it the darkness hides?

Does it slither or does it slide,

Breaking the silence a baby cries,

As his brother suddenly dies,

Then the silence again revives,

Bringing in a blanket of darkness,

Giving me the taste of bitterness,

Silent nights made me realize,

The bizarre feeling of neutralize.


Far I see a blinking light,

And there goes a soaring flight,

Then I hear in the disturbed silence,

A gun shot fired creating violence,

Later comes the sound of sirens,

And fades away at the speed of stallions,

Then I hear the SONG’O NICE *

I think for those who sacrifice,

The world is full of the dark and light,

There are people full of spite,

I am those who also write,

Are you tough to stand the fight?

It will take all your might.

I say it again,

As it is a refrain,

At this moment of the night.

Silent Nights made me realize,

The truth of life has many signs*

And it* is the one with powers divine.

This is a poem I wrote sitting up all night just listening to the sounds of Life! Yes life. This poem has a description of various occurrences that took place and night and i penned them down in the form of this poem. It spreads the message of the neutralizing nature of life and depicts us the good and the evil in a new form.


SONG’O NICE = Pleasant song

Many signs = The different symbols of religions

It = Refers to God/Almighty/Allah/Rab…
