Yesterday a precious dew drop born

Today a simple raindrop formed

Tomorrow if your words don't care,
You'll find an ugly, rain cloud there.

There came that dreaded time in life
when despair knocked at my door
I felt a hurt so deep inside
as if no one had before.

My reality seemed hard to face
the road I walked so mean
Loneliness hung overhead
trust and love were lean.

Relationships once solid
were gone without a trace

I delight now in my gift from God,
my eternal friends of faith.

Boxed in by your shallow sins
You decline the strength to look within

You preach that your way is the key

What if I were you
and you were me?

Resigned from the band
now a solo act
may as well accept
You can't change fact

Talent observed
far above the rest
a lonely exchange
feeling love
for a quest.

I took a vacation from this linear day,
and when I returned
it was yesterday.

Man walked about earth
at a pace relaxed, free and fine

Then, in fear of being late
he created time.
