Shadows Of The Night

by Cindy   Aug 3, 2007


Shadows of the darkened night
Slowly creeping to claim me
Waiting patiently for you
Nothing left here for me to see

Life for me is at it's end
Ready to close my tired eyes
Drawing upon my final breath
No one left to say good-bye

Loneliness worse than pain
Consuming my very being
Overshadows conscious thoughts
Love of life no longer seeing

Sitting alone day after day
Finally taking it's toll
No one here to talk with
Wearing down a weary soul

Shadows of the darkened night
Gladly welcoming you in
Wishing for your deadly kiss
My only friend, the bitter end
