Night! these tranquil nights,
why it curses her heart
with a burdensome smile,
the golden crescent gleams
at the distance,
in the velvety night sky
countless fireballs flicker
illuming every facet of the
pale gloomy night,
the whispering breeze sings
a forgotten lullaby,
the calm ocean crawls up
the sands murmuring the
ballad of the brine,
the eroded pebbles clank
clatter, the rusty melody
of the sketchy love story;
*
the moonbeams stream
from behind the cloudy veil,
myriad diamonds glisten
on the crests
of the surging waves,
a lonesome spirit strolls
on the cobbled path of yore,
wearied heart, drowsy eyes
tired steps, numb cries,
gazing at the mystical night
she dreams of her bygone time
words that were left unspoken—
emotions that were left unrevealed—
letters that were left undelivered—
at the doorstep of her beloved,
such nights, such tranquil nights
often curses
her heart with a burdensome smile!๐
