Jan 2011
Silence falls across the land
Some may not understand
That light becomes night
But do you have the sight?
Tick tock goes the clock
Broken hearts turn to rock
They have lost the rhyme
The beating drum is off time
Happiness is a choice
Within the truth of our voice
Don't allow shadows to win
Next moments are to begin
Matters not who, or what they are
Stop, look, see that falling star
Shadows are not a reality
Only an emotional fatality
I give you a thought, a smile
Maybe only for a short while
People always come and go
Reason we don't always know
But, I do know this for certain
Pure gold lies under your curtain
Time to cut those binding strings
Open them; allow the light to bring
Magic and miralces to you
Your soul knows it is true
Loudly annoucing it is the time
To once again find your rhyme
Tick tick goes the clock
Challenging you to crush the rock
