If I Succumb to Sleep I'm 

Lost within.

The darkness, 

has come, to claim me...... yet again.

But

I'm too old, to die.... alone.

Too old, it seems ...

to no longer, share ?

I heard a laugh, that brought a smile.

But you had gone.

I smelled, a whiff of perfume,

on the wind.

It smelled ...... like yours, 

but you weren't there.

Once again, the night has brought,...... the memories.

I share alone.

For now, everyone....

Has

Gone!
