ALL ALONE IN THE DARK

There you are -Filled with the brightness of your beautiful face,
And men who run behind your beauty like a rat-race,
And here I am - Alone in the dark,
Singing for you like a lone skylark.

My world is dark without you,
I am in love with you like others-too,
But I also value your attitude,
For which I have always shown you my gratitude.

Now you are away from me,
I too am separated from you,
But I wish I could see you once again - Free,
Yes-Free for loving me once again.

You are the Moon and Venus combined,
But I am not Poseidon or Cupid,
When your words will one day find-
-Me alone in this dungeon of darkness you will find me lying down like a stupid.
