Nestled in your resting place… dawn breaks,
time to begin.
Indifference settles in.

Expending light hours in solitude
longing to find joy in company.
The sun departs, withdrawing all warmth.
Behind,
left to be consumed by dark corners of the mind.

To look into another’s eyes
gave sense of belonging.
Now,
only give a venomous sting of uncertainty.
