No stars grace the sky tonight
And the moon has already set
I sit and read by candle light
Moments I'd much rather forget
But no line goes unread tonight
Compelled to read every one
Every word too clear and phrase as bright
As though lit by the too distant sun
No kinder words were ever said
Than these at my fingertips
Condemned to only ever be read
And not pass from mortal lips
No one shares my life tonight
My path has already been set
I rub my eyes in the morning light
Knowing I will never forget
Good poem. Kinda picked up a cynical perception because most of the poetry on this site sucks. Yours was an eye opener and very refreshing. Awesome work.
What a nice descriptive poem this is.
I can feel the ire of the sender.
