In The Dark Window of The Night


He looks through the dark tinted window of the night
Holding his heart in his hand in pain, not delight
He closes his eyes
And just wishes away
Wishes, that his wish would come to be, one day

He looks around his room - what does he see?
A messy arrangement, a cabinet - maybe two
Past memories, come and go
Of people we used to know
And though we cry silently in sadness
It fills our hearts with gladness

Another look to the lamp-lit street
Another tear, another weep
Another wish, another cry
Another time, he closes his eyes

When oh when
Will his wish ever come to be?
When oh when
Will the agony of being lonely ever stop taunting him and let him be?

He looks through the dark tinted window of the night
Holding his heart in his hand in pain, not delight
He closes his eyes
And just wishes away
Wishes, that his wish would come to be, one day

its only in the night when its too dark that the soul feels so cold..
your poetry is full of feelings.. makes the reader really feel the words deep in his heart..

"holding his heart in his hand in pain, not delight" < i loved this part.. the fact that you mentioned not delight gave the sentence more.. feelings !

A messy arrangement, a cabinet - maybe two.. that was wow.. for me.. it enforces what you said first about the dark tainted window and its night.. so the room is really pitch dark to a limit we wonder if the cabinets were one or two.. loved it..

"And though we cry silently in sadness
it fills our hearts with gladness"
OUCH.. but true.. if only we can stop thinking and remembering !

look.. tear.. weep.. wish.. cry..
:) i love the sequence.. a lot

"the agony of being lonely" sometimes its a blessing !


do wishes come true? sometimes they do.. many times they play hide and seek with us.. !

sorry for the details..but i loved it so much..
