Draining

Darkness overcomes the light    
Draining the dew from the sun    
Alone with my heartache I fail    
     
Memories blow hard surrounded    
The twinkles have lost their shine    
Words uttered have been silenced    
Trembling   I await my final fate    
     
Shadows slip off into solitude    
Laden lies another storm
My mind hums a dreaded tune    
But my soul still marches forth
     
Winds rest now  for I am weary    
These arms can not hold on    
Restore her to the way she was    
Let distant desire  lead her home
