People don’t much smile any more
The skies are gray…
It isn’t like before.
Everyone is going to the races.
Our life is fast.
It’s full of empty spaces. Solemn faces.
Where is the trust we had? Aren’t you my brother?
Why do you pray with me One day…
And then, prey on me on another?
Where are the evening walks The bedroom talks,
The times to share.
Instead,we scurry everywhere To find the real “us”
We agonize and fuss
And then despair.
Where is the care
We used to have for one another?
Is it still there…?
Where did it go
The simple things….
The honest laughter?
The love of life,
Forever after?
It seems to rain too much
It’s getting colder
Springtime is much shorter Now, and I feel older.
I wonder where we all went wrong
Where is the blue sky…
Where is the song?
Why can’t I slow down…
And find the fun again.
Of smelling the grass grow, Of seeing the sun again.
