Light's Glow

Have you heard of the witch’s deadly poison? Have you ever felt winter’s rough seasons? Tonight, I have seen when my sunlight fades away Tonight, I felt a burn on my skin when your smile didn’t stay You spent your last smiling hours with me You filled my night with the best fantasy You shared your last happy moments with me You drew a beam on my face’s ecstasy I didn’t realize those moments were the tonight’s end I couldn’t see your joy’s deadline seed For if I knew tonight’s savaging scheme I would have looked for a cure to the pain’s haunting dream Have you ever heard of the witch’s deadly poison? Have you ever felt winter’s rough seasons? Tonight, I have seen when my sunlight fades away Tonight, I felt a burn on my skin when your smile didn’t stay Wind has different breezes to blow Some might be friends while others are foes But, to know what is tonight’s show Wisdom and Knowledge must be on the glow Wisdom can be a mere badge on one’s shoulders Dust covering all of its borders Knowledge might be an award hung on a wall Dust covering its texture’s role Have you heard of the witch’s deadly poison? Have you ever felt winter’s rough seasons? Tonight, I have seen when my sunlight fades away Tonight, I felt a burn on my skin when your smile didn’t stay Yes…I have been living with you for sixteen years Yes…I can not see you filled up with cheerless tears Tonight, I have seen when my sunlight fades away But, your smile’s appearance softened the cloud’s stay
