That window is dull even in the light
Has somebody been gloomy there or had someone had a fight?
The front wall now no longer has that picture
Has it been taken down or it had no fixture ?
And whatever happened to those curtains so vogue
Will they never be replaced by anything on the globe ?
The lantern from the roof too, burns now consuming its own toil
Why hasn't it been given its share of oil ?
All these things lead to a devastating image
Of nobody living there or everybody being engaged
The scene that I had made up. looking through that window pane
Now seems brutally wrong or totally insane
I still look at it like my place of pilgrimage
For once I used to see you there and complete my heart's wage.. !
