This moment of silence
A sleeping household
Tucks the corners of
The night around me
Cocooned in peace
I sit secure from
This day's marauding
The steam of cocoa
Banishes tensions of my day
Dust in the corners
Sits quietly waiting
Stir of a new day
For a moment I breathe
Air that is mine alone
Precious stolen this
Solace and solitude
End of conflict
Stress and anger
Time of healing
Strength to face
The coming dawn
For a moment
This life is mine
