Grey clouds choke the sky—
shattered glass grinds beneath boots
sole cracked like his voice
Warm candlelight glows
safe walls hold love’s harmony—
school bell hums welcome
Blesséd event blooms,
Lilies whisper: "Alone, 'tis me."
Already unfolded.
Evening shadows stretch long,
Silently touch, keen as strong,
Twilight descends, dusk along.
