Total Eclipse

Nothing comes to mind
Empty is not fulfilling
Searching for words
Wondering where my soul went
Everything is blank - nothing exists
I never looked for beauty
It just flowed from me and now
There is nothing left
No love no beauty only me
Is it so wrong to wonder
Where it all went
I felt the colors drifting away
Slowly they left me from bright
To pastel from pastel fade to black
I was living in that powder keg
And my heart has found
The total eclipse of my soul
I then feel your trust and love 
And I am filled with brightness
And warmth and peace
