'Two Nights In One Day'

Rating: 4.5


This Night is seemingly too long,
as i sit espying from my window,
alone with the shadows
And Voices.
I see the Night falling
as darkness takes its shape
And Structure,
the Night is Made.

A Baring Owl Screams
from the back of the Fence,
alerting every one of
the witching hour
And the Moonlight moves on,
shining and glistening,
Radiating the dark night.
The Sky holds no guiding Star
tonight
And men Sleep beneath
A
Strange Moonlight.

This Night is traveling too far
As Anguish takes the better half of me,
I sit in sorrow and illusion,
Fighting a thousand fears,
that troubles me without a smile.
I plunge into the Night
Saddened
The Night has swallowed
My Glory
and here i am in dismay.

Two Nights born from
A
hopeless day,
where pain and sorrow
visits with their
twisted hands,
Strangling and Manacling me,
Who can Save a Wandering Soul?
Where he searches for the other
part of himself.
Where
two nights merge as one
and a long journey emerges.

Two Nights in one day,
Where my Screams Reverse back to me
And
all i hear are voices
Of Silence.
This Night is tortuous and treacherous,
This Night is so far from home,
This Night may never end soon,
This Night may last forever,
We may not Awaken.

Hi Ovi How are you! Your poem descibes a depth of troubles one wishes not to experience. You captured this feeling and reflected the feelings we hope never to have. A loving hane will be the solution of peace to guide you through the troubled night. A very moving and emotional piece. Apollo gifted me with a very creative February. I wish to invite you to read my newer poems. Best wishes and waiting for some new poems from you soon! Greetings, Paul

Hi Ovi, How are you? This is a very moving work of desparate feelings which horrendously take the soul away from its flight to the glories of existence. A loving hand can calm your turbulence and awaken your spirit to a solution of peace. Your description of pain and angst is very moving and well_written. Apollo gifted me with a creative month of February. I wish to invite you to read my newer poems. Best wishes, Paul
