The night fell in without warning
Pretending and flaunting… mocking
My grief… laughing at tears
Pointing out fears
Pressing sounds came out of the wall
Leaving behind a blurry mind.
Hope is a distant dream
But there is no sleep
Nor warmth or simple smiles to keep
A chin up … or steady a shaking hand.
No place to land… to shut off the ache.
Once there was laughters
They escaped in the rafters
Seemingly gone… why are memories
Not enough? Searching for something
Seeking some truth … a spirit without
A spirit within… then there in the Word
Only everything.
