On a night like this

On a night like this I often sit and think where is the tinkle in my eyes It's lost Lost in shadows deep where echoes weep On a night like this I feel a silent ache Tears cascade like autumn rain Lost in a world of lingering pain On a night like this When moonlight whispers shadows dance Heartbeats echo a mournful trance. On a night like this when my inner child wails I see behind all the bloody trails Red from the wounds that once used to bleed Now for which no attention I need On a night like this when a distant star gleams the canvas of my life screams Burning sensation of the strokes it's fed It's liveliness which now is dead On a night like this when I reminisce the hugs of sadness,the tragic bliss Wilted roses, memories fade, In the garden where hopes once played. A somber symphony, the heart's refrain, Echoes of joy drowned in silent pain. On a night like this when the raindrops kiss my face Silence holds me in it's somber embrace Raindrops mimic the tears that fall, Echoes of a melancholy call. Broken verses, a tale untold, In the book of sorrow, pages unfold. On a night like this when the moon caresses the scars unseen And beautifies the gaps within Through the tears, resilience grows, In the garden of pain, a heart still glows. A poetic dance of joy and despair, In the tapestry of life,woven with care Through the verses of a mournful song, Healing melodies slowly prolong. In the poetry of grief, a resilient art, A masterpiece born from a shattered heart. On a night like this...
