A Shadow In The Dark Poem by Fredrick McDonald

As I sit alone in the dark
I see a shadow appear in the darkness
as I pra y for a glimmer of light
as she stands before me
I can hardly breath
is this a dream
if so I don't want to ever wake up
I yearn for her soft gentle touch
is this asking too much
as I reach for the light she touches my hand
to slide it away
as she speaks
to ask me if she could stay
she doesn't like to sleep alone
as we hold each other ever so close
I think she is the most
from a shadow in the dark
I am alive again to feel this love again
