And with that change comes certain feelings

Emptiness, lost and no way back

It’s like a tunnel that has no end

Only dark and despair

And the only light you've always

known no longer burns

Searching and wishing wont make

the light come back

Tears and hurt only make the light farther away

Morning light is dim and wispy

Neither casting shadows nor filling

rooms of a heart with tenderness

Just that dull lifeless dark

I never seen the light fading

Always knew it would shine so bright

But taking off the mask

I see it now,

Has been fading a long time

Maybe it was wishful thinking

Maybe it was reflections of my own light

The light I thought so bright

My light of love and want

Burning bright

But are only casting empty shadows

For there is no light at the end of the tunnel

To meet and touch my light

I lie to myself and tell myself it’s

my own imagination

Feeling these things

But the feelings are there

Neither the light,

nor the softness of whispers that once was

Not the tender touch that awakens you

Just the feeling and the light is gone

No longer do I see the eyes and smile

I've loved and longed for

Just a face that is pleading to be left alone

Never seen that till the darkness sat in

Beautiful ones need a light

So relight yours and I shall extinguish mine

Let your light always shine

Seasons do Change
