For Lance

Sunlight  
where do you go?  
I know that at dusk  
you make the mountains glow.  
Your last ray catches my eye  
but I wonder:  
why must you go?  
Why leave me to the dark of night?  
To the cold,  
to the bitter hours...  
The moon's a poor reflection;  
the stars, a distant company.  
Is my only hope to wait?  
To trust we'll meet again?  
My dear sunlight  
where did you go?
