Sounds of Joy Outside My Window

Sounds of Joy fly by my window Without a glance or a care Passing me by swiftly and quietly Passing me as if I’m not even there Falling into laps of needless people Full of happiness and no regret People with perfect lives and god on there side Sadness obviously hasn’t found them yet But sadness is inevitable It will wait as it feeds off of time After sadness has had its fill It strikes at ones unbroken happy life Sounds of Joy still fly by my window But now they know that I am there As they slow down and take a look I can’t help but only gawk and stare Next time they fly by my window I shall reach out without a care As I fall into the Joyous sounds of life Let them lift me up in the air Let them carry me with love to heaven For my happiness awaits for me there
