The Rain Knocks On My Window Poem by Raabia Tabassum

The Rain Knocks On My Window

Rating: 4.3


The rain knocks on my window,
In the middle of an abysmal sleep.
Dreams shattered and broken,
I wake up again and not the first.


In the disguise of weeps,
You snatch away my saccharine sleep.
You knock on my window,
And shatter absurd noises.

Rain beads continue,
One after the other.
And my nerves back and forth creep
Cause you don't pause and discontinue.

You take away my sleep,
You give me eerie cacophony.
Amusing you are,
You make me ecstatic too.

Sometimes, I abhor you,
'cause you disturb my abyss sleep.
You knock on my window,
And shatter obscurity at nights.

Nature changes according to the mood of the man.(Shakespeare) . You may be in a mood to enjoy the rains sometimes. An honest and beautiful description.
