There is a place within us
We sometimes need to go
Where sorrow is the only friend
And happiness the foe
Identify the emptiness
Experience the pain
Maybe when they’re reconciled
We learn to live again
Forward is the only road
Though fear and lonely tread
Looking back will drag you down
And fill your heart with dread
Sorrow gains acceptance
As tears given their due
Forced to walk without the one
My soul was granted to
Thin the veil from here to there
And yet I cannot see
How does one bridge the gap
Tween now and being free?
Harbor lights announce the night
The ocean plays its song
When streams in the morning light
The weak become the strong
