There Was A Time

The years have sculpted my soul,

With mournful tears and days of old,

I have mastered the art of pain,

And paid my dues with extraordinary loss,

My life has nested in the waves of time,

And rescued the pieces of my aching mind,

The shores of darkness have settled now,

In the deep unknown, they lay,

I hope never to feel the torment,

Of this raving sadness again.
