First Shadows of Grief

I can't explain the shadows of my world
Where grief and frantic pain obscure the view
The couple has been severed from its place
A speeding car and death, the end of you.

The night now breeds the feeling of despair
A growing sense that this one cannot last.
The growing need to have you come again
An overwhelming shadow of the past.
