Reaching For Your Hand

The loss of each simple thing hurting the most When drama subsides and time slows to its worst Your shadow still living inside of my pain To darken each heartache again — and again (The New Room: May, 2025)

To be mocked mercilessly by your own shadow at the height of your pain is a great calamity indeed.. it is a sorrow on top of sorrows! Your pen is power!
