And in the Gathering Darkness

As I sat staring at the sunset
the moon came out to play
and in the gathering darkness
I looked upon my day.

I thought about my trials,
the tough things that I do,
and in the gathering darkness
I finally thought of you.

I thought about the times we shared
and times we never had,
and in the gathering darkness
I feel the least bit sad.

The sun sets, light fades away,
leaving skies of deep, dark blue,
and in the gathering darkness
I wish I was with you.
