Come sweetie,
Just a little farther.
Keep coming-
It gets less darker.

Your hand, my love,
So close beside me.
Interlaced-
I feel love inside me.

Pursuing blackness,
Held at bay.
Sanctuary-
Of love and play.

Darkness-
Encroaching-
Taking-
Leaves nothing.

How-?
Where-?
Here-
I am alone.

By myself-
And all alone.
And so alone,
I walk on home.
