The Starting End

If I retreat from this world for a little while
Would you miss my face, my attempted smile

Not sure where to go, not sure where I’ll hide
Like evening sunshine entwined in dusks stride
As I struggle to stay up in the sky
A force pulls me down to let time pass by

It is winter now and my bones are so cold
The chill has shifted, casts over my soul
My inner twilight strives to survive
Wants absence from life to keep me alive

I’ll be going now for a little while
I promise to come back soon
So don’t be sad as I walk away
I need to escape my gloom

I’ll go gather strength to rise once more
To come back and shine in life with allure
