The Gloom of Daylight

 





A woman’s look, turned  my eye, 


Plain, and soft as summer 


With a sweetness  barely touching  a tone of loneliness 


That blended it’s way into my heart 


So cruel of me with a smile, without a word 


To wander past and barely scrape away her need 


Matching only my smile to hers in passing.  


 Leaving the loneliness to smother her heart 


And turn her smile into yearning, 


Dulling the brightness in her eyes 


Giving only the remnants of a chafed smile


Then vanished  into the gloom of a lonely trail. 


Gone forever, still I feel her loneliness slicing through my heart.
