The Light

[chris_the_princess]

This is my first poem I think I have written in a few months. I am open to all criticism. I would like to know what I did right and wrong, what you thought of it, what you took from it, and what you think I was thinking when I wrote it. Thank you so much!

The Night

Confined in darkness the light shines brightly,
The light of the moon still shines so slightly.
The breeze is heard through the hush of the night;
Even the deaf can hear her fight despite,
The fight she is losing to the light that shines brightly,
The light that still shines ever so slightly,
The light, a reminder - the night must end
Why, oh why - Why can she not fend?

Fend?

Yes,

Fend!

Fend the light that shines brightly.
The light that ends the night so slightly;
The light that leaves for the breeze of the night,
Why must the light still want to fight despite,
Despite the reason why the light must shine so brightly,
Oh why - can’t the light shine slightly?
The night should not want to begin its end.
But then again, why should the night have to fend?

Fend?

Yes,

Fend!

The night should not fend.
It is an inevitable end.

My friend…

The night must end.
We are the ones that are left to fend
Til’ the end.

The end.
