Midnight snacks

The beauty of the evening,
The blushing horizon in the west
I adore much the taste
Of sugary sweets blended
In the black coffee
In the mug of beautiful evening
Moistens my thirsty throat,
To alleviate an exhaustion 
After my daily affairs.

The glow of appealing eve
Freezes to the stark darkness.
Thin cover of Black Satin
 Sets nightly all over my body.
The cool and soft warmth
Of my subconscious body 
Spins the deep slumber.

My whole body are then senseless:
By the immeasurable beauty
Of my beloved.
Warming me up at a snail's pace 
Plunges to an iridescent dreams.

After having dinner, 
Nice reflection of  the glowing eve
Switches into gloomy night
I clean my hand and mouth 
And feel me cozy by the leftover
At the edge of my dinner plate
Midnight snacks sparkle
Like diamond inside the coal.

The midnight snacks
A few pieces of food desecrates 
As the complexity of my life
Tastes saline as the ocean water do,
Comes out frequently
Of my dehydrated throat
Something more pleasant savors.. .
