Dark Days
Gray soldier-stones now guard
my child through seasons lost.
There is no sunshine,
only rain.
Gray skies weep—
My soul weeps.
Life is no more…
Understanding shall not come
Separation forever—I cannot conceive.
Eternity, Eternity!
I wait for death’s reunion.
Dark days dwell in my heart …
A soldier has fallen.
