There’s something about the lonely hours, Just you and me, our space overlapping. The sky a meadow, constellations, flowers. No passion-filled debate, no vying powers, Lazy destiny dreams, eschewing plans or mapping. There’s something about the lonely hours. Past today, the future glowers, But reserve this sacred instant for reflection, recapping. The sky a meadow, constellations, flowers. The earth is straining, injustice towers, Insidious corruption, pain and deceit chafing, chapping. There’s something about the lonely hours. The darkness consumes, seconds become hours, Sorrow lurks at hand, irksome insecurities tapping. The sky a meadow, constellations, flowers. Yet, peace resounds, the evil cowers. Hope, the thing with feathers, quietly, resiliently flapping. There’s something about the lonely hours, The sky a meadow, constellations, flowers.
