Stepping Stone

by Tiffany Fisher   Jul 23, 2008


The world is dark and grey
As I step onto the stone
The rain clouds come to stay
But immune i might have grown

walking down the street
seeing all the smiles and laughs
but on past walk my feet
as my heart slowly breaks in half

no one can see the clouds
that gather above my head
no one hears the crowds
that yell I'd be better off dead

i watch as life around me dies
throwing me into dark
not even the light of the fireflies
can cause my world to spark

people around me, they have a good time
and they don't know what it is like
to have this ladder that i must climb
as all along the way i get a strike

i do not hear encouragement
from the people who are my ''friends''
i think that all my words are spent
this broken heart just can not mend

have you ever seen a tree
so green and full of life
die in front of your eyes, you see
thats only part of the strife

as i walk down the road
all light will fade
all life that once glowed
will end up dead and betrayed

for as i walk upon the stone
i steal the life from many
as i search for a life to call my own
i do believe there isn't any

i am alone in this world
there is nothing here
the hurricane has unfurled
i have no more tears

i live in a world that is dark and grey
as i step onto the stone
the rain clouds come to stay
but immune i might have grown
