A terrible sadness has settled behind my eyes.
A quiet yearning for days of happiness and love beneath blue skies.
What sorrow life heaps upon me, what despair crushes hope from my heart?
Will all my days be filled with darkness?
Can I never escape my past, never far from me, held close by this heavy chain?
The flesh is weak but the mind is set. Anger has hardened me and in my anguish I have barred my heart, hoping one day to open its gates and let my love flow free once more.
