Dim

Draw the shades closed;

don't let any more light

enter this darkened soul.

 

I need to accept that

I will always feel

like this-

 

eyelids heavy

from disappointment

and rejection. 

 

They shut like 

the window curtains

in this dim room.

 

They need rest

that doesn't come

and hope that doesn't 

fill this place.

Reading this, my heart goes

Reading this, my heart goes out to you, and I hope the dimness is chased away by sunlight through the day and starlight through the night.
