I grew up an introvert, maybe because of my personality I'm always drawn to myself, I rarely talk or speak up in the midst of others thus the plain sheet and the pen became my companion, I always find away to pour out my thoughts out loud on the sheet, I would stay up late in the night just writing, not for anything but to let out the steam of the day and to reassure myself of the possibility that lies ahead.
the night became my favorite moment of the day, I feel more of myself when I'm alone, I can think, reminisce, reflect, pounder, strategies and collect my thoughts and lay them before me.
I love the nights, somehow I find solace, comfort, peace, I find me in those dark hours of the night, when all living creatures are probably fast asleep, where there is silence, stillness, just the cricket shrik shrik sound out there, where there is total silence away from the noise from the hassle and bussle of the day, this moment make more sense to me, I love the night hours, somehow I can't sleep early, rarely do, I am a late sleeper, doesn't matter if I have to get up by 6Am in the morning I Rarely can sleep early it's not just in my DNA.
I've grown to love the nights because of it's calmness, that helps me to be me, I discover as I grow up that I'm not a man of the crowd, I am a man of few collective people who share like minds, who are motivated and driven by the same shared principles, I hate noise with passion, I hate roudiness, I hate places been scattered unkept, I really can't think straight when the whole place is noisy when everybody is talking, when the music is loud, when there are distractions everywhere, i am someone who loves to reflect and think things through before making any decision because I hate regrets and things going wrong as a result of wrong inappropriate planning.

so the night means a lot to me, it is everything, personally it's the quietness of the night, the stillness, the steadiness, it's like the whole world passed from their confusion and chaos and greed and confusion to catch their breathe then to resume in the morning again, I recall during covid 19 when for the first time the entire world rested since after God created it, there was this calmness, peace, serenity, the world stood still for a while, cameras capturing empty streets, market places that was once filled with tons of people moving to and fro....
the night means so much more to me, wish I could turn this into a poem, cause I fall In love with the nights all over again, cause it's my best moments of the day, please ladies and gentlemen of the @midnightletters community initiated by @samostically a very senior midnight owl who saw this vision of birthing a safe haven for thousands of people like me to pour out their hearts content in a time they best feel 100% of which they truly are, i say Big Thankyou for reading this far....
