Sorrow

I came to you on a summer’s day
In this heart my Love contains
For the first time in years
I felt blissful the joy of tears

I saw you as the first bloom in May
You were the blood that flowed through my veins
I felt the burdens disappear
And my will ignited to persevere

But the blue skies they turned to gray
My emotions they turned to chains
The insecurities began to reappear
The boundaries of my confidence became unclear

How did we wander so far astray
The only gifts we gave each other were pains
We turned our backs to paradise’s frontier
And returned instead to the old, the sad, and the severe

Now I sit here and I pray
That God will remove all these stains
The loneliness I’ve grown to fear
Is all that is left with me here
