Snuffed Lights

I'd walked that path for so long,

followed two pinpoints in the night,

the pinpoints that i loved so much,

the pinpoints that were my leading lights,

they were my life as i walked,

through shroud and mist the same,

they kept me going without stop,

they kept my fears all tamed,

they were my life, my hope, my song,

my twin points of being,

but fate play a cruel cold game,

and doused one of the lights i was seeing.

i grieved with shock at that huge loss,

but it fueled my love for that last one there,

but another stole from me that light,

took it away and left me bare.

now the cold sinks and and the darkness closes

and i despair and fumble round,

i know the cliff is near, but unseen.

and ill fall to my death when my feet leave the ground.
