When I Was Loved


 









When I was loved I never had any fear

strength and security surrounded me

gray days seemed brighter, this heart lighter

with the knowledge that I was not alone

 

Time gives, but then it takes away

all the things we thought would last,

slowly swallowing the past

and we adapt as best we can...

as we wait in the wings for the last curtain call

and that starless night that consumes us all
