Poem In The Dark
by Steven Masone
Through the tear stained windows
of my dark and cold night...
Quiet shadows cast down from above.. no warmth... no light.
Inwardly I grieve, as the faraway music cries...closing her melodic door,
Sweet songs fading, the beauty of their refrain, ...no more.
My eyes lift and see the pale glimmer... vanish as a fleeting cloud...
Torn between sense and sound, I give up my voice...I cry aloud!
More tears upon my tears, falling down and down they fell,
rivers... deep fountains, searching for the bitter... black fire to quell.
Ashes of broken dreams fly upward ...in courage, with resurrected strength, ringing hope's bell.
I rise up from the dazed and blind torment... of my long,
lonely, and unbearable... Hell!
