this upside-down life, so disconcerting
a world of shadows, passions, yearning
time tempo slows as sun takes flight
into yawning shades of the night
when darkness falls, and shadows grow
a world only few would know
away from warmth and heat of day
now others sleep, in stillness lay
my time to wake and start anew
indigo shades, lavendar hues
adorn the palette I work from
memories of you to keep me strong
in time, this too shall come to pass
existence as this isn't meant to last
love draws me back from dark abyss
to feel your love, to taste your kiss
