You came one day, uninvited-
no one called out your name.
In a silent way
bringing heartache and pain.

What's your name?
I asked so many times in vain.
Secrets?  Sly?  Pride?  
Who bore the blame
for this love ending in shame?

As with day and night...
shadows are as important as the light.
I never minded the lows- 
from time to time
but God, in this total darkness
          ...just let one star shine!
