A Darkened Night

A darkened night 
Tonight she's out
She stares at darkened waters 
Her gaze never wanders
She stares at her soul
Her mind, her heart 
Oh how they seems dark 
She reaches to touch 
Her thoughts a whirlwind 
Silent tears, never to be seen 
Falls slowly, she feels insane 

Petal by petal she drops in flowers 
So white, they stay there, laying in waters
She gathers her dress
She has done her best 
She feels a new surge of strength 
She lifts her head 
And walks homestead 
For life, no Matter what, goes on
And death, can claim its victims to soon
