Sitting
alone
Watching the windows
A dimming falls across the room
Sitting alone
The final light of the day beams through
Piercing, urging reminding me that it’s there
As it fights for it last breath
I step closer to feel the warmth on my skin
It grips me, just for a moment and it’s gone
the darkness tiptoes closer
Alone
The darkness is yet still inviting,
I summoned the courage to open my eyes
Wider
There’s something else
A glistening from the corner of my eye
It catches my attention
There wasn’t anything there before
A crack appears and through
a new light shines
Not from the sun, that I know
Entering into the room, this light wairly
Moves but in one direction
Towards me and I’m captivated by its glow
I move forward, though wanting to run
Unsure!
but embracing
A step closer, tenuously but sure
It moves towards me again, nothing to hide
I step closer to see, eyes wider, open
I’m held, for a moment
It grabs, reaching, encompassing me
Exhilaration succumbs over me as the light washes over me
Fingertips touch and my hair stands on end
Just a little but noticeable
These fingers probe, they find a way in
Reaching, feeling
Something inside squirms but reassures itself
Attracted and under a spell
There is no escape
It’s not needed anyway
Something touches deep inside
There are fingerprint, now laid down
On my soul,
My heart have been touched
I’ve been taken
I let myself go
No walls, no darkness, no shadow
I lay myself down
Bare
Open
Enraptured
Complete
Waiting
Waiting for the next moment
When this light shines again
Does it all over
Waiting
Looking forward
To waking
Waking next to you
