Unending Lament





Gone the shadow of auspicious trees

That bowed down to shade my head

That veiled the night like a many-fingered cloak

And shook their boughs like chattery teeth in the wind


Now rising like a night owl, silent

Beneath the cold moon’s glare

Though pure and clear her light reveals

Her wholly pious stare


To avenge a broken heart

Fragmented, hopeless dreams

Made helpless in defeat

Defying love to gain a reason

For love’s unending lament

Its pitiless affliction

And merciless addiction
