It's like sitting on your porch on a beautiful day, The sun bursts through the sky, Its glorious rays caressing every inch of my skin, Sunlight dances through my hair and across my face Tweaks each side of mouth into a Chesire grin. As the warmth swirls and leaps within it Sweeps away the withering buds, the dead flowers, And scatters hope and joy in their place. But then the darkness sets in, Clouds roll in thundering, screaming, They shroud the happiness and bleed it dry, What was blossoming gasps and shrieks to Nothingness. The darkness makes your front porch seem so distant, I'm alone In this darkness As ice dances unruly upon my skin And frost seizes my mind. The sun is consumed, its golden aura Cannot break through The clouds are too thick, too dark, It's gone And all I can do Is pray.

Dark Clouding
It's like sitting on your porch on a beautiful day, The sun bursts through the sky, Its glorious rays caressing every inch of my skin, Sunlight dances through my hair and across my face Tweaks each side of mouth into a Chesire grin. As the warmth swirls and leaps within it Sweeps away the withering buds, the dead flowers, And scatters hope and joy in their place. But then the darkness sets in, Clouds roll in thundering, screaming, They shroud the happiness and bleed it dry, What was blossoming gasps and shrieks to Nothingness. The darkness makes your front porch seem so distant, I'm alone In this darkness As ice dances unruly upon my skin And frost seizes my mind. The sun is consumed, its golden aura Cannot break through The clouds are too thick, too dark, It's gone And all I can do Is pray.
