About this poem
This poem explores the duality of the night, depicting it as both calming and unsettling. It highlights the speaker's desire for solitude, peace, and a sense of revival that the night can offer. However, it also acknowledges the potential for sadness and the selfishness of the night, while emphasizing the importance of dreams as a source of solace and hope during these nocturnal hours.
