Chapter 38

Because The Sun Has Gone

You were my joy
My ray of sunshine
There was nothing I wanted more
Than to make you mine

It should have been us
Away secretly to elope
Instead you blinked by choice
Allowing an intruder to interlope

You melted life's dark shadow
Became my shining sunbeam
Then in a blinding cruel instant
You made me cry and scream

I feel betrayal's dagger
Plunging stab after stab
Everything was almost healed
Then you ripped off hope's scab

The darkness has blossomed
There will never be another dawn
The blackness within me wins
Because the sun has gone

Nobody
