IN THE TWILIGHT

In The Twilight 

We have lost even the twilight that run's  
Deep within us ,  
Now I must ask ! Is there an us , Did we let it all end ? 
No one saw us this evening hand in hand 
While the blue night dropped on the world. 
Then you cut me deep when you told me you must go , 
If there is pain that I gave please let it go , 
Let it run away with the night were it belongs , 
Let us not end like this ,  
It will be you I will miss . 
I have seen from my window in a dream that comes back at me , 
What could I had done to put my love on the run ! 
Sometimes a piece of sun burned like a coin in my hand. 
My hand the one you once held . 
I remembered you with my soul clenched 
In that sadness of mine that you know. 
But to know you are the one I want to hold in my heart for life , 
Together in one heart our love could never fall . 
Where were you then? 
Who else was there? 
Saying what? 
I shall hold you wherever you are ,  
I will give breath again to your deaden heart . 
Why will the whole of love come on me suddenly 
When I am sad and feel you are far away? 
Why did you go and leave me so alone , 
I needed you to love me ? 
The book of love fell right at my feet at twilight 
A cold night when you left me , 
Always, always you recede through the evenings 
toward the twilight erasing statues. 
Just know this love I hold will always be to you my love  
My life was lived through like falling rain ever sent you  
Left my heart in the twilight of a lovers spat .
