The sweet sound of nothing
Ringing in my ears
Not a distracting sound anywhere
For anyone to hear
The comforting darkness
Closing in around me
The thick fog arriving
To protect and surround me
A comforting twinkle
From the stars in the sky
Their knowledge of the universe
Watching me from up high
The night holds so many mysteries
And so many surprises
I always feel so happy
When the night arises

I enjoyed it... but a few things strike me. The first thing was the rhyming of "me" with itself in the second stanza... it just bothers me for some reason, I'm not sure why. Secondly, the first stanza you stagger long line then short line. It sort of throws off the flow.
Other than that I enjoyed it immensly!
