Gloomy Soul Poem by ANJANDEV ROY

Gloomy Soul

Rating: 5.0


In the dark winter night
I lay in the cosy bed of my little room,
But couldn't sleep,
When I tried to close my eyes,
I heard an agonizing cry of a stranger in my tranquil room.
Being terribly afraid,
I lit the lamp soon,
But the grievous cry disappeared in the light
And there was none,
Then I extinguished the lamp and tried to sleep again in darkness,
But the same thing happened,
I listened to the harrowing cry again;
After a prolonged thought I found
It was the dark reflection of my own gloomy soul.

Prolonged thought may finally solve the actual problem. You, the poet, were in the cozy bed in the dark winter night but your soul was gloomy. So your prolonged thought made you to jot down the problem that it was nothing but the dark reflection of your own gloomy soul.
