Carousel of Tears
 
  Carousel of tears night after lonley night
never stopping and never starting continuing
on the same evolution

Our tunnel of love now seemed to come
to its end, followed by the roller coaster
and not to mention the ferris wheel
of endless hope

Magic flowing in the night air
with the lights aglow, winning
my cupid heart, and sharing
a candy apple we enjoyed
all that the big top could offer

Capturing each and every
excitement well knowing
that the midway will close soon

So after winning the biggest teddy
bear you could find, and taking
all the photos with love written
on our faces

We silently walked as the lights
went out and now I am left with
this carousel of tears.......

Bonnie Collins
