Its the Nights

Its the Nights

A Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)
"

sadness, depression, loss

"
It’s the nights…
It’s the nights
that are the loneliest

The days grow shorter
The nights grow longer
And Morpheus morphs into a tempest

In the dismal dark, I grow cold
The old feel
of comfort, lost

I’ve naively let
Life slip away
And at such a terrible cost

I used to be somebody…
A person
In my own right

Now I’ve become nobody,
Alone…especially in the
Dark of night

I’ve lost all the things
That I once loved
All things I thought were right

Now in my mind…at night…alone
I cannot find
A place to put my mind at rest

Tis the nights…I dread
In my lonely bed…Tis the nights
That are the loneliest

Turn over, and you will see me there .. alone, and missing love, just like the rest ..

Well done ! ... Jasmine x
