A Candle Extinguished

I look up at the clouds sometimes and wonder Behind the bushes those who laugh hiding never found Happy where they hide themselves linger in the dark Smile, smiles hide the fear, never hear Through the Secret Forest Cross the Bridge of Light I look up at the sun somehow and wander through the night Near the trees, they hide themselves, heard but never seen Sad and lonely, all alone in the bright daylight Cry, cry to make them feel, crying just to show Feelings Come and Feelings Go Cross the Endless Snow I look up through the fog at times and wish forever now Near the flowers, lie in the garden sitting in plain sight Wistful thinking never ends Wishing for the world Vacant, vacancy in their mind Vacant just to think Thoughts They Feel, Thoughts They Know Cross the Pit of Woe I look up through the ground at night and worry for their lives In a coffin where they whisper deep within the ground At peace and done with toil Sigh, sighing just to know Sigh to Remember, Sigh and Imagine, Their Lives Forever Done Cross Through the Gates of Hope A Candle Extinguished
