GOLD DARKNESS:

Light is darkness
For the sun and the moon
Shine as grey as the day
Though the sky is blue, I'm told

My heart is heavy
For its cry is of longing
And emptiness remains
Too painful: the thought of you, to behold

My spirit is oppressed
For I, me; rejected
The shadow of my life; today
Hidden arms are few: to hold

Hence the light is darkness
And my passions empty gold
For others' hearts are cold.

What a heart-wrenching, tale! I hope your colours come back soon!

~"My heart is heavy;My spirit is oppressed",....*sigh*.  This poem is a truly sad expression.  
Well written S. Take care, thanks for sharing this. *Peace.
