In the Darkness

For my Shadow

I close my eyes and there you are
Waiting for me
In the shadows and
Darkness of my mind

I hear you
Calling out to me
Willing me to join you
To be with you
But I am not ready
I fear the Dark

I see you in the Faces of
Those around me
Those who wish me to
Save myself from you

I feel you reaching out to me
Pulling me to you
Pulling me with you
I am ready
I am yours



This one I wrote a few years ago. Not much of a story behind it.


Well, it looks like I have some company for a while. Bubba fell asleep on the way home from Relay for Life tonite, and got a nap from 6-6:30 until about 11. So, I have company for a while. I'm not complaining. I like the company. :) Maybe he'll keep me awake for a while. I know his mouth will. He talks non-stop. That's a three-year-old for you.
