Ugly darkness, wakeful skies,

^^I find this opening lines very interesting. For me, I find a deeper meaning in it.

bone weary heart heavy sighs;
bearing ancient burdens
on haggard shoulders,
still the night drones on.

^^An image of a tired soul carrying weight of
the past sitting on a chair..touching scene.

The whole poem is so well written with vivid images of a sleepless soul tired of the never ending night. Liked the smoothness of the flow and the rhymes used.

Congrats on the win!

Absolutely beautiful!
