Darkness

The night closing about me, I sit here wondering why

why am I here alone, why are you far from me


Feeling alone in the darkness, I sit back in my chair

settling into the dark of the room, lost in thought


A dim light shining through the window,

the moon at her fullest caressing my skin


The night is closing about me

and I think of you


As far as you may be, you are close to my heart

a lingering light in my darkness


You are the warmth in the late cold hours

I wrap my self in thoughts of you


I’m here...

with night closing about me

like a hug from the distance ...
