The Night
 
The night fell down,
Beyond plummet’s hue –
So far, I could feel,
Conflagration’s sting –
 
The burn, it ached,
A whipping throb –
Sort of a solace,
Though, dour day –
 
Wee hours of morn,
Brushed their tears –
Along my cheek,
As I stirred –
 
Found myself drinking,
The blood of dusk –
Curled in writhing ball,
Sun’s furious scorch –

For me, this spoke of nights where we are unable to sleep. Where the creeping thoughts of our daytime and reflections refuse to let us rest. To "Drink the blood of dusk."

A very well consturcted poem!

Always like to wake up to the sunshine coming in my window. These dreary winter days it does not happen always. but better days are always coming ahead for us.
