As I wake to another long day without you,
I prepare for the journey and tasks yet to do,
But deep in my mind lies a thought I can’t tame,
A tremor of doubt on the love that we claim.
———-
Does the darkness in you sense the darkness in me?
Will our shackled souls ever escape and be free?
Do you dream of a life where it’s just you and me?
Does the darkness in you crave the darkness in me?
———-
But I go on my way as I try to forget,
The chaos around helps my mind not to fret,
Yet when I’m alone and the day once more through,
My heart will again return focus to you.
As I lay here awake in my deep reverie,
In the shadow of thoughts from our long history,
So the questions remain in the pit of my soul,
And the solace of night does not help or console.
———-
Does the darkness in you fear the darkness in me?
Will you be here forever to save me from me?
Do you ever imagine what we’ll grow to be?
Does the darkness in you trust the darkness in me?
———-
Yet the dawn skies return with no answers in sight,
No glimmer of hope in that dim morning light,
So I gather my thoughts and again walk away,
Locked deep in my heart for the rest of the day.
As I work to ignore all that cannot be said,
The hope that alone I can fix this instead,
But I know that in time as the night closes in,
The doubt will return and take root deep within.
———-
Does the darkness in you need the darkness in me?
Will we walk hand in hand or just let our hearts flee?
Do you think there’s a chance we were not meant to be?
Does the darkness in you love the darkness in me?
