The ghastly shadow of the night,
Taking over me like a blanket,
Covering up my dark side,
Making it even darker than last night,
What is it about the dark?
Whenever i'm under this cover,
I feel lonesome and deprived,
The feelings of being single hit me bad,
Is this what it feels like?
To be lonely and broken from the inside,
Looking at people connect,
Their lives so blessed,
Mine, not so bright,
Getting darker by every night,
Now even the stars that spread the sky,
Make things seem so high to reach,
And dark to preach,
Is it just me lagging behind?
Or is there someone else left behind,
The loneliness scares me,
But the light of the sun merries me,
Now that again,
I write this poem as the suns gone,
I feel darker but strong,
As still there is life in me,
That's holding in that spirit,
That I now share with you,
As within the next two hours,
The sun will rise.
