Alone She Waits


















Her clock, it tics
Counter clockwise now
Unwinding it's magic
Undoing it's spell
A heart that, at one time fluttered
Now sits, quietly settled
Alone she waits...
Watching the clouds roll in
She waives as they pass her by, sullen
Wishing them a well deserved
Fairwell, good ridence, bye bye
Alone she waits...
As each day comes to a close
Gazing up at the night sky
The stars, they glint and glimmer
And the moon, it brightly glows
Alone she waits...
For the season of change
Awaiting a time
When dawn finally breaks
When the sun will warmly shine
Nurturing flowers to grow
The thought once brought her hope
But the fascination is no more
Alas she knows
The wonder is gone
Her mind drifts into space
Dreaming of what's next
And though her clock still tics
It makes the oddest of clicks
The sound she knows all too well
The sun once again, begins to fade
And the night slowly closes in
Alone she waits...
Watching the time drift away
