“Sorrow”

 

Sorrow is an ocean

In the silence waves hit

 

I see flashes of light

But not enough to stay lit

 

Happy strikes like lightning

But thunder follows soon

 

Clouds hide the light

I cannot see the moon

 

The tide is high

And it sweeps me under

 

I look up and see

Lightning before the thunder

 

I am treading water

But the current is so strong

 

If I take a break

I fear I won’t last very long

 

It’s dark and I’m lost

Which way to the shore?

 

I just don’t know

If I can tread anymore

 

It’s so cold and heavy

It’s dark all around

 

Maybe if I last til morning

I will be found
