My Night Light
I can see my way through
The pain of losing you
My night light
Comfort me in my lonely existent
Alone I'm on my own
It glows so I know
The sun will rise
And my eye shall weep
No more
My night
Hold your shadow
Of our pass
Lingerly through
Darkness
Still
The aching
For you
Night light
Burns in the coldness
Trying to capture
Any hope of
Yesterday
Screaming
Come back to
Me
Flash
The Night light
Goes out.
