Call from the night
#10
I enjoyed the mystery and seductive nature of the poem.

Call from the Night

The darkness beckons
silently in the silky night air. <---Silky night air is gorgeous, especially followed by the statement that it's a cloak surrounding her.
Enveloping her body in a cloak,
hugging her as an old friend.
He whispers words into her ear:
escape, bliss, wonder.
And she thinks about going with him. <---And why wouldn't she? He's exciting and friendly, maybe even mischievous?

She wonders what it would feel like
to see the shadows trace
the veins on her arms.
To feel frigid adrenaline
pump through her blood:
Dark, cold, comforting. <---These lines make the hair on my arm stand on end.
And she thinks about going with him.

He tells her of his years;
How he hides in the night.
And she thinks it seems nice
To be submerged in the calm.
Loneliness chimes in: <---Lonely chimes of freedom...
Peace, tranquility, freedom.
And she thinks about going with him.

But dawn breaks and darkness cries.
She fears of losing her companion
But something tells her to stay.
She hears a soft murmur in her ear:
I love you.

Darkness runs away. <---Am I right to assume she's left alone? Will "I love you" be his last words to her?
