The Night Poem by Lesa MRK

The Night



How does one deal with an emotion,
Which burdens the heart?
It weighs down your entity,
And drives two lovers apart.
How does one take what belongs to him,
When others have it for their own?
How does one derive meaning,
When his existence is not known?
How do I tell you I'm sorry,
When your ears are deaf to sound?
How do I tell you the world has ended,
And the night cannot be found?
For within the night dwells the promise,
Which died so long ago.
Would you understand this poem?
I guess I'll never know.
