A Friend In Isolation

Nothing behind but darkness
I can’t go forward in this starkness
Inside these walls I flee
Escapes between the pages you see
A sorrow, too great to bear
Too large is my fear
I heal in this isolation
reprieve in my determination.
Tears flow through my heart
I am sorry we had to part. 
From the haze you arrive
Together we’re alive
Reflect my pain 
Remove the stain
A light amongst the darkness
