We fall victim to the darkness of the night

Trapped for hours in its discontent

We wallow in sorrow

While the night is basking in its

Contempt for our daylight hours

Loathing any idea of our happiness

We take solace in knowing

That you will be gone in a matter of hours

And each summer day ahead will

Shorten your stay

Maybe finding a way to make you

Lose your way

So we no longer get trapped here

With your distaste

For our pleasure of the

Beautiful Aurora

When we will no longer be

Under the cover of night
