Desolation

Sometimes the last glimmer of light fades
Darkness descends
Perspective is lost

The growing cold advances
And all feelings drain
As the lonely shadow consumes me

Where am I?
Where have you gone?
What did I do wrong?


In the darkness speak the truth
Neither height nor depth
Nor deepest night...

Where can I go that you are not?
Though my eyes are covered
Flowers still grow and the sun still shines

I will not fear the dark
Nor believe the lie that you have gone
But patiently wait until the dawn
