I have been one acquainted with the night.
I have walked out in rain—and back in rain.
I have outwalked the furthest city light.
I have looked down the saddest city lane.
I have passed by the watchman on his beat,
And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.
I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet
When far away an interrupted cry
Came over houses from another street,
But not to call me back or say good-bye;
And further still at an unearthly height,
One luminary clock against the sky
Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right.
I have been one acquainted with the night.

The person who wrote this was definitely a better poet than me, though, so maybe I'm just missing the point.

No, I think you're onto something.
Do you think we could edit them together into a new version that combines the best of both?

You can hug me if you want. I know I'm not very huggable, but maybe it will help anyway.

You're welcome. ♡
Although I feel silly saying that when I didn't do anything except continue to be a not especially huggable shape.
