Dark

The sun went down tonight and left me lonely waiting for the stars and moon to take its place
I watched the sky with bated breath but heavy clouds obscured my view.

I waited and waited but only the breeze in the pines came to interrupt my solitude
It whispered secrets I wasn't able to hear and made me lonelier than before

I went inside discouraged and turned on the kitchen lamp
Moths fluttered near the flame and afraid of their demise I turned the light off

Alone in the dark I thought about the void you left
and realized that the light I craved could not fill it

I needed more so I gave in to my loneliness and called you
The phone rang lonely once and twice and at three I gave up

And l let the dark take me.

You

I met you one night at a bar,
You knew the bartender,
I knew her too.

She said your name,
I committed it to memory.

We saw each other again,
We sat and talked for a while.

We were just friendly bar flys,
talking about nothing.

Then I needed a friend,
and you just happened to be there.

And I'm glad you were.
Thank you for listening.

Please don't ever stop listening.
