O,Moon don't peep.



O, Moon don't peep.

O, Moon don't peep
through my window
and spread silvery light.
This is my sleepless night.

She took away my everything.
My love, my heart
Which was owe to her,
had taken away for ever.

Moon, hide your face
behind the clouds
to stop spreading your glory
which only evokes my memory.

    The speaker does not appreciate the moon in a night like the one he is having and understandable so for the moon stands for love, lover, romance and seemingly he has lost all of that.
    Good poem and good read!
