Draining
Darkness overcomes the light
Draining the dew from the sun
Alone with my heartache I fail
Memories blow hard surrounded
The twinkles have lost their shine
Words uttered have been silenced
Trembling I await my final fate
Shadows slip off into solitude
Laden lies another storm
My mind hums a dreaded tune
But my soul still marches forth
Winds rest now for I am weary
These arms can not hold on
Restore her to the way she was
Let distant desire lead her home
