A poet pens of life’s defeat,
Of grief; of solemn thought,
Endlessly flows inked surfeit,
Tragic verse from sorrows wraught,
Words spilling forth beyond closed gate,
Beyond heart’s inner sanctum,
Never doth soul’s pain abate,
Decrees dark’s high placitum,
Sentenced to eternal night,
Forbidden thoughts of joy,
Unfettered fangs of heartbreak’s bite
Remnants of a life destroy.
A poet writes; he aches for dawn,
Evermore in day’s begone.
