NIGHT

Silence, darkness, emptiness, rain.
Thunder raging, a passing train.
The epitome of graceless dwelling-
On a life most unfulfilling.

The lonely night, my only friend.
Forged in the darkness on the wind.
As passion plays in monotone,
The songs of silence, again, alone.

My heart it beats, however hollow.
Empty as the thoughts from a mind so shallow.
Senseless as the touch that cannot feel,
That comes from calloused hands of steel.

As emotions rain down a thousandfold,
The desire to share love has turned me cold.
In the storms of life, so unforgiving.
In a life I'm not sure that I'm living.

When God puts a tear in your eye,
He puts a rainbow in your heart.

The desire for love can be what hurts the heart the most. Very nice poem.

The night beckons me as well my friend, as it is the only constant companion I have.

Nothing is worse than sorrow,
except perhaps disdain.
I'll be myself tomorrow,
tonight I'll feel the pain.

Michael indeed...though I must say, that there have been many times when words written on paper have given me the proof that I was living my life. Well done Dark Master!
