Rocking Chair

Sitting here in this dark silent home Sometimes my mind starts to roam Time has taking it's toll With the punches I roll The toss of the dice Thinking times are nice When they really suck Your tail do you tuck On you go You never know Where tommorow will come Not as bad as some Still carry enough of the light To carry on this fight But it gets hard With a body so scared Weighing you down You try not to drown In the thoughts of your mind What do you find Dreams from memories Lost and found Some died without a sound Getting lost to the past Nothing ever last Reach so high You could almost fly Least you did try Peace soul of sadness There somewhere ahead lies the gladness Just have to seek Chance a quick peek Maybe time does heal The weight you feel Lighting your heavy load Smooths your road Just know you won't get anywhere near If you just keep setting here
