When Night Falls

The midnight corridors hum sighing songs,

shades of lost waves of laughter.

The open corridor; wings of despair

flap across the tender sky.

The jingling of dancing distress

upon shattered souls—

the moonbeam through the broken window grills.

Some fainted glories, some bitter cries

 in the blank flames of quietude

echo to God when night falls.
