Leon Enriquez Poet Couplet

Sad Vigil

Sad vigil here
Where death creeps near


Dark is the night
Where darkness lights


Mark this place well
Where shadows dwell


Feel the sad cold
Where death takes hold


The half-moon wanes
Where sad cold rains


Cold like deep frost
Where pulse seems lost


I wait and watch
Where loss finds notch


Too much moans fail
Where death lifts veil


Too late to run
Where cold air stuns


I turn to stare
Where plain rhymes bare


Then must I know
Where new life shows


In the cold night 
Where death moves sight


Soon limp form fraught
Where breath turns naught


Going home now
Where love endows
