Hypatia's Poem:
Now that it's gone
I miss the night
Now that the only thing left is light
And something else neither night or 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
Too loud too selfish and ready to fight
And the one that is quiet never gets heard
And the ones that are awkward
Dismissed as mere needs
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 starlight 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
In loving memory of
Meghan Noyes and Noelle McCown
