Mourning Time
Have you even wondered where hope goes to die
Have you spent your whole life just wanting to cry
What does it mean to you when things shatter
A million of pieces left for you to gather
What happens when you're up but you feel so low
What happens when you'r running with nowhere to go
An icy eye
That can't help but stare
But, does not pass without one last glare
It's rage and hate that let out a sigh
Not forgiveness and calm that would have never said goodbye
A plane with no pilot
And words without a tongue
No, what are words that can never be done
Will the moon cry with the wolf
Or, is it an empty circle that will always be aloof
I see the rose with no color
And, the bird that has forgotten its song
Will anyone see the butterfly
While the eagle is standing by
Has hope forgotten to stop here
What does it matter
The wolf will continue its path without sheading a tear
