I knelt to pray but not for long,
I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work
For bills would soon be due.
...
How little we knew that morning,
The sorrow that day would bring,
When quickly and suddenly came the call,
Shocking your dear ones, one and all.
...
Once there was a time
When I felt like,
I had all the happiness of life
That my dreams would come true
...
Maybe it was the way
You looked me in the eye
When I saw you today
That makes me want to die
...
What madness in my desire,
What chaos in my heart,
My soul dies for you.
It is the joy in my abyss.
...
Loneliness is
A child spinning a top
On an abandoned sidewalk.
...
If there is a future there is time for mending –
Time to see your troubles coming to an ending.
Life is never hopeless however great your sorrow –
If you are looking forward to a new tomorrow.
...
As silent tears
Fall down my cheek
They’re filled with pain
From way down deep
...
