Mourning Time

Location

Have you even wondered where hope goes to die

Have you spent your whole life just wanting to cry

 

What does it mean to you when things shatter

A million of pieces left for you to gather

 

What happens when you're up but you feel so low

What happens when you'r running with nowhere to go

 

An icy eye

That can't help but stare

But, does not pass without one last glare

It's rage and hate that let out a sigh

Not forgiveness and calm that would have never said goodbye

 

A plane with no pilot

And words without a tongue

No, what are words that can never be done

 

Will the moon cry with the wolf

Or, is it an empty circle that will always be aloof

 

I see the rose with no color

And, the bird that has forgotten its song

 

Will anyone see the butterfly

While the eagle is standing by

 

Has hope forgotten to stop here

 

What does it matter

The wolf will continue its path without sheading a tear
