Fun says, "My poem - The Lonely."

In the depths of the night,
Shadow is the only company for the lonely,
A dark companion,
Unwanted,
Yet stubbornly holding its position,
Sitting there as time flowed by.

Then came the first light,
Shining forth from the horizon,
Bringing hope to the lonely,
For he saw that salvation will be arriving,
When the morning broke.

Filled with hope and anticipation,
The lonely closed his eyes,
Wishing for brightness to rule the earth again,
Feeling the warmth of the sun heating up his skin,
Joy overwhelmed his mind,
Until…

Until the first drop of rain fell on him,
He opened his eyes only to see the horror of darkness again,
Gloomy clouds covering the whole sky,
Bringing heavy downpour to the earth,
Washing away all dreams of illumination.

Disappointed and battered,
He retired into his hiding,
Waiting again,
With the shadow…
Waiting…
