It’s hollow in the darkness
Where thoughts and fears collide
The rapid beating of my heart
That tears me up inside

Can you hear my silent cries?
Soft whispers in the night
Do you hear me calling you?
When things don’t go just right

Don’t leave me here, alone,
Again, I cannot face the day
These battles, much too hard to win
My body, worn and frayed

Answers to my questions
Left lingering in air
I’m asking for your comfort, please!
Just let me know you’re there

A sign to reassure me
Everything will be alright
It’s hollow in this darkness
I need to see your light

A crooked wooden path climbs high

Over mountains, reaching sky

Disappearing into the night

Shall I travel toward the light?

Do I chance what lies ahead?

Or do I stay behind, instead

Afraid of what could be the end

Not knowing what’s around the bend

Shall I take a chance or two?

Yes!  That’s exactly what I’ll do

Striding, over faded boards

Creaking as I step, go forward

Running, to catch the rising sun

Knowing my journey has just begun

Faces paint the midnight aura
Colors light the evening sky
Watching over land and sea
Satellites go zipping by

Galaxies become as one
Constellations come to life
Visions watching over us
Beguiling, mesmerizing, rife

The universe above, as one
Beneath, the Earth divisible
Lessons learned become undone
As the skies become invisible

Black and white, to shades of gray

Colors slip beyond the day

Shadows cover evergreen

No longer does the sunlight gleam

Darkened clouds obscure the light

Stark and barren in the night

Lands, once beautiful, it seems

Lost, within a monochrome scene
