A Reason


Surely there's a reason there Somewhere in gossamer wind For all the darkly depressions That hold so tight my friend And once our scavenge closes And our find is clear as light We'll no longer see the darkness Like we did that darkly night For smiles come in handshakes In kisses and in laughter The love once seen before Will be different once seen after The day your mind is broken Like a jar of coins and ash We'll find what hid there deep In the burnt and beaten trash
