How Pale The Light Lies Poem by Patti Masterman

How Pale The Light Lies

Rating: 5.0


How pale the light lies, beneath the closing door-
Sleepless or sleeping- in shadow evermore.
How the words die, on lips like wilted rose;
But whence the words go, no one ever knows.

How sad the mirror, that only sad eyes shows;
Forlorn the moon, though each night fatter grown.
When dark returns, the door will still be closed-
No moon nor shine, where barren rose is sown.
