Mixed Elements, Mixed Emotions


Sitting in the dark

Under the moon

Your mind runs away

And you're left with your thoughts

You gaze up at the stars

And you think about the ones

That you love and lost

But when the sun smiles down on you

In the middle of the day

The warmth and joys of life 

Begin to spread over you

And you can't help but smile back

Like nothing is wrong with the world
