A Life In Shadow

I cannot bear to see you there, Upon that chair in solitary recline. It seems not fair, that I cannot share, your company, for which I pine. Although the shell that is and was you, Appears to be on open view, The you that previously was us, is gone, Lost like the sun, that once upon us shone. As we fade into the darkness, of infinite night, lost amongst the shadow, perhaps bereft of light. I will always be there, showing you the way, If there’s a light I’ll find it, time is relative they say. This was a dream from Which I woke, Reflecting fears that might soon be, That nether world where sleep holds sway, Sometimes shows truths, hidden by the light of day.
