All Light Begins to Turn to Gloom

Written By: Lisette Serrano

All light begins to turn to gloom

As I reckon with the debts of the unrequited

My hopeless pride begins to loom

As I wonder over the justice of the Moon

Her rays bring me back to the emotion she ignited

All light begins to turn to gloom

With a drink in hand I find comfort by high noon

Suddenly my endless sorrows become indited

My hopeless pride begins to loom

My mind conjures up a faded, distant croon,

Reminding me, hastily, we are no longer united

All light begins to turn to gloom

You were once the cause of a fulfilling bloom

Now I starve for your wrongs to be righted

My hopeless pride begins to loom

I’d take anything you give me even if it meant doom

Though I fear you consider me disinvited

All light begins to turn to gloom

My hopeless pride begins to loom
