Call On My Name
Lost among shadows of solitude’s flow
Stained glass illusions destroying her heart
Sadness competes for a seat on the row
Little it knows long ago brought it’s start
Sorrow now lingers the depth to believe
Longing some guidance, the proof to be shone
Sitting alone in the silence this eve
Feeling this night is now all she has known
Gone every hope of her desperate fears
Dreamed inspiration of moments unable
Drowned in the waves of her unending tears
Life plays it’s hand as it folds on the table
Merely a light in the darkness to shine
Silent her prayer sent aloft, up above
Doubtful at best of now crossing the line
Never again to know eternal love
When like an echo, a voice it does call
An answer perhaps to her last whispered prayer
I will be near if ever you fall
Call on my name, I shall always be there
