Evening Shadows
By
Jude Kyrie

The evening shadows fill my room
I think they fill me too.
Dark Evening Shadows of midnight Blue
Sad as an old blue tune.

I lie sleepless on my pillow.
Yours now empty on the bed.
I feel the darkness come once more
It comes from inside my head.

The Gods they must have laughed
at the promise that we gave
We swore that we would never part
These were decisions that they made.

I care not now if they dim the sun
Or close the moon and stars
Darkness is my chosen friend
For deep within its blackened space
It hides my broken heart.
