The Music Of This Lost Night Poem by Shalom Freedman

THE MUSIC OF THIS LOST NIGHT

The music of this lost night
And the dream of the nights
Which were once forever
Fade and lose their meaning
As I see beyond this life
To some other world
I do not know I will ever go to-

God must bless me now
And let me be here
Somewhat longer
So that in some time this music
And the chords of another broken melody
Will become for those who love me here
A certain consolation.
