Story of Night

entry picture

So you are lost in dreams so deep whole night

And I long to hear phone's beep whole night

 

At dawn, I realised, my awakening

Though my destiny remained asleep whole night

 

I know the remedy, I know the toxin..

What to lose, and what to keep whole night

 

She might have waited for me to take her back

This is what made me to weep whole night

 

Sharafat, night is to sleep, not to write

Don't let enemies to creep whole night

This sounds like a person at a crossroads in life, especially at a painful decision point in a relationship. I liked the repetition of "whole night" at the end of each stanza.
