The Lonesome Dark

The Lonesome Dark.
+++++++13++++++++++

You look
pretty
in The Lonesome
Dark.

And (on cold
nights)
You Breathe
A fire in Me.

As I Lament the
Death of
Another Heart!

(But what is
That
to Eternity?)

+

Midnight told
my
Soul a Secret;

though
(in that
moment)
I didn't heed..

And
Because
Of
 "You"
I could
not keep
it!

(thus
remain a
Victim To
The
Devil's Need.)

+

A Perfect
End is quite
Serene,..

while
Mans
Greatest Loves
are
Long,
and Beautiful.

Yet mine
is
Somewhere
In Between!!

(Odd Living
And An Endless
Funeral.)

+

You look
Perfect In
Your
Lonesome
Dark;

Breathing
A
Fire No One
Sees.

Lamenting
The Passing
Of
My Heart!

But...

(What is that
To Eternity?)
