Going through the same motions
day after day
I sit and ponder
What is in store for the next day
Hope rises,
Joy swells
Smile teases.
All I have left are
the dark clouds and the lonely abode
The dark solitude makes me smile
I would, for the lonely abode go an extra mile
Hope crashes
Joy dies
And, I smile
day after day
This is my life all the way.
