I feel your presence from me depart I feel the darkness my spirit envelope I feel the warmth…your warmth gently dissipate I know your touch has since gone cold I watch from afar the shining light That once upon on a time was a reflection of us I cringe and crawl deeper into the shadows The darkness now my home, my solace, my friend The thuds of my heart, the only sounds I know As silence surrounds me… thick as the dark The sighs from my lips, a welcomed interlude As time makes its way, day in day out
