After a long season of heartbreak <br />And months of indecision, <br />After insufferable nights of tears <br />Reflecting on kisses once placed <br />On your gentle moonlight face, <br />My broken heart receives crystal clear vision: <br /> <br />When love has ended <br />And friendship wanes, <br />One must depart the city <br />Of all his shattered dreams <br />And find a new place <br />To begin again, <br />Unknown paths to tread <br />Where there is no fear <br />Of finding a perfumed handkerchief <br />You once kept <br />Or of running into a mutual friend <br />Who saw him weep <br />The last lonely night <br />He walked upon your street.<br /><br />Uriah Hamilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-last-lonely-night/
