Lately, I've noticed how light lingers, Like sound caught in empty space, Above the dim horizon long after the sun has set. And as it dances in the wind with dark clouds that hang Like morbid thoughts above the Earth, I can't help but yearn to see my sun again If only for an instant.
I fear the truth- That when these last traces of her have faded from the sky I will be resigned to wander and weather This, my final winter, without her in the dark. And should I look up and see the stars, I may admire their beauty, but I will know it not real. For they are only shadows of her, Whose light only reminds me of the love I've lost, And they could never be enough to illume my life.
So as I sit alone at dusk And watch the world fade into night, I wish that I could see my sun, I wish that I could make things right.
