a light in the dark

By: David Fronius

night seems darker than usual now
the air as still as a picture
the darkness holds me where she once was
blanketing my body and soul
wickedly licking its lips
waiting to taste the fear of loneliness
the only light saving me from this insanity
is the love-fire she left behind
keeping my heart burning for her
yearning for her warmth
keeping aglow all the possibilities
all the dreams
all the love she had to offer me
but it is night
it is dark
she is gone
and i'm alone...
