Seems there is a lot of darkness all around

Everywhere I look it overrides and surrounds

Some say that the future is looking a little dim

I listen and then I offer up my prayers to Him

Still I cannot help but find myself falling

With thoughts of only just yesterday calling

In the mist of the beautiful sadness of rain

In the midst of yesterday wafting ‘cross my brain

Thoughts of a beautiful dancer and her smile

Who once upon a time made all seem worthwhile

Some things are the things of mortals dreaming

These are the best things that give life meaning

It still brings a smile to think of her as a friend

Time passes slowly as my heart slowly mends
