Analysis of CALL OF THE NIGHT
CALL OF THE NIGHT
He is in a world that never sees light.
Nor anger he has far to go.
For what he sees is hate within the walls of his spirit.
His soul has yet to cherish .
The joys and the beauty of life that has yet to come.
His nights are like the roars of the wind.
His darkness are the cries in the shadows of the evil.
His tears are blood of vengence
For he knows not the end of the lasting pain.
He looks at the stars and the moon for a ray of hope .
They know not what has become of him
He worked with the lust of evil desire
His thoughts are more than straight
In time
He looks beyond his Universe
In search of the heavenly faith
And knows that life has so much to offer
And he still has a place in it

About this poem
Is aboiut a little boy who has gone through abuse and bullying while growing up. As a man today he still goes through those nightmares and sees alot of hatred and evil within himself. He is going through deception and depression is eating him up because he is still under the spell of trauma. But he does believe that life is good to him and he has a place in it and chances are he will change to be a better man.
