Poem - Some Nights

Some nights

Some nights the world dies,
And I see myself as a spec,
Sitting alone, lighted by a tiny lamp.
And as I call out to the world -
All I hear back is my echo.

And some nights I am surrounded by people,
Eating drinking making merry,
Brushing me and going from one dance floor to another.
And as they hurry past me I feel,
My life leaving me with every touch of their hand.

Some nights - normal nights -I try to remember -
The most beautiful memory of my life
And then wonder why
It doesn't come with smile anymore
And everytime I touch it with my finger,
I find
Dust settled all over it's floor.

And then there are some nights like tonight
when I wake up
And find the world quiet
I look out of my window for a while
And try to make sense of the darkness outside
And far away at the distance I see -

I see the sea crying with me tonight.

...and then more dim nights while we are away from home.

And then there are some nights like tonight

when I wake up

And find the world quiet

I look out of my window for a while

And try to make sense of the darkness outside

And far away at the distance I see -

I see the sea crying with me tonight.
