Nigh
The silence of night
Flows around me
Like enormous undersea current.
I lie on the bottom of dumb, green water.
I hear my heart
Sending its light and dark signals
Like light house.
A voiceless rhythm
A secret code
I decipher no mysteries.
At each flash of light
I close my eyes
To keep the continuity of darkness
The endlessness of the silence
Engulfing me

Listen, you will never learn if you get someone else to do your work for you. So read the poem, think about the questions, brainstorm it a bit and then write your answer. Now shoo, before I tell your teacher. Don't think I don't know who you are.

well, to me it seems that the poem is about a man who is about to die and he is willing to do so.
the mood of the poem is definitely very sad but this man feels relieved and calm because he is going to die because he thinks that he will find eternal peace. I also thinks that when he says:"i decipher no mysteries" means his time to die has come and there is nothing strange about that because it is natural.
