Eclipsed Shadow

My shadow had sunlight then eclipsed in front of me It went in front of the moon becoming an apocalypse Dark and cold for my sun has disappeared Creating a darkness that brought great fear The stars no longer twinkle for I cannot not see My shadow has taken my universe from me The earth has become a place of loneliness Ocean waters now sit still without waves I now live alone in the darkness of a cave The sun no longer rises only clouds and rain Laughter has become silent without a smile A damp pillow in a darken room of gloom My Shadow has disappeared
