As the sun sets on the warm fall day, so to does the darkness fall.
As the darkness falls on the earth, so does the darkness fall on my heart.
I had not felt alive in the sun, nor warmed by its rays today.
But numb with shock over the loss of my love.
As the darkness now fell upon me, I felt colder.
The prospect of night with out my love made me weep.
She was gone forever.
Never would I bask in her beauty again.
The bright glow of her smile that warmed me from within.
The happiness that she displayed at seeing me.
And that I received when I saw her.
The most beautiful woman I ever saw when she smiled.
She was frequently beautiful when we first met.
Alas, in the recent past she hardly ever smiled.
I took away her smile, and caused my own heart to mourn.
I could not allow her to not be beautiful.
She belonged with someone who would make her smile.
As we said good-bye I prayed she would find her smile.
