All you who sleep tonight



All you who sleep tonight
Far from the ones you love,
No hand to left or right,
And emptiness above-

Know that you aren't alone.
The whole world shares your tears,
Some for two nights or one,
And some for all their years.

Vikram Seth. Copyright Vikram Seth 1990. All you who sleep tonight. Viking. Penguin Books India. 2005.
