The tone used in the poem can be described as sad. The imagery of watching the rain and feeling like the day is gone suggests a sense of longing and melancholy. The desire to escape and ride into town contrasts with the feeling of being stuck, which also contributes to this tone.
I sit and stare out my
window
Watching the rain pour
down
Wishing I could escape
below
And ride my bike into town.
Shadows crawl up my wall;
It feels like the whole day is
gone.
I’ll sit and watch the
nighttime fall
And just sleep away until
dawn.
