Darkness

                                               Is it raining?

                                               You would think so

                                               as I look at the world

                                               from behind a curtain of tears

                                               the sun once so bright

                                               now seems dimmed

                                               the stars twinkle not

                                               the sea has turned grey & stormy

                                               leaves are dry, dusty & brown

                                               even the clouds are heavy & still

                                               My heartbeat is heavy & dull

                                               thudding alone where once

                                               it was twinned

                                               my mind has turned inward

                                               the drawbridge now pulled

                                               my skin cries out to be touched

                                               but only feels the cool night air

                                               a cloak of darkness

                                               has me enveloped.
