Dark Days

Dark days trapped in a maze, no escape or plays Minds like Picasso, painting blues and grays Clouds hover low, sun afraid to show its face Heart heavy, feelin' weary, lost in outer space Numb fingers grip the pen, scribble thoughts of when Life was sunnier, now just black ink in the den Voices whisper doubts, shadows longer than Hope fading, slowly sinking, ain't no rescue then Then love came, light broke through Shattered chains, made old anew Soft whispers turned loud and true Love's embrace, a soul to rescue Eyes met eyes, silent rhapsody, symphony of hearts Healing wounds, stitching seams, mending broken parts Found solace in arms, warmth like burning stars Depression turned to ashes, memory of scars Hand in hand, walked the lane, rain turned to breeze Laughter's hymn, life's refrain, sorrow's need to freeze Smiles spread contagious, like springtime trees Found peace in love's party, head and heart appeased Then love came, light broke through Shattered chains, made old anew Soft whispers turned loud and true Love's embrace, a soul to rescue
