Fading Bliss

I'd a walk a miles in life I'd seen the countless strife I'd felt the poignant pains As I traverses life's main. Rivers of tears runneth by In silent brook of lullabies I'd tried to call the sky That in paradise I may lie. Twas long ago since world subside In the curling hues of life And in the canvass of every moment. Stroking brushes and fearful pigments. Beyond the tall linden trees And behind the lovely daffodils Was the pain that never cease Perhaps, yes, perhaps it was sealed. It was enough to tread the path And to butterflies to said goodbye For in every tremendous aftermath They do never cry. I'd tried the wagon to hitch the sky But in the midst of nothingness I found my self in foolishness lied And engulf in emptiness.
