[hometext] => this was done kinda on the spur of the moment
[bodytext] => I look up at the night sky As a single tear slides down my cheek And follows the path Made by the many tears before it. The stars are veiled in a shroud of mist And the light from the full moon Is dulled from behind the thick clouds. Angrily I brush it aside but, The flood gates that have been holding Them back throughout the day Are opened and a torrent of tears Come cascading down my face. A strong gust of wind Comes sweeping across the fields. The tall wheat is bent over Like an aged woman And the leaves from the surrounding trees Come hopping and skipping over one another Like little children playing in the meadows. We buried him today. Little did the people know that when They threw each handful of dirt On my lover’s grave, They threw pieces of my very soul with it. The light from the sun seems snuffed out And its warmth seems stolen away. He left me with nothing, No way to guide my weary heart. Where once there was happiness There is a great chasm And I can smile no more. I look up at the night sky As a single tear slides down my cheek And follows the path Made by the many tears before it, But I know that he is looking down on me And that I will make it to the morning.
