life's but a sad, sad, song


Finally ... it came ...:

the end - of all my hopes ...

and all my dreams ...

the final, irretrievable end.

The calm that comes

when the storm of life is gone

when nought's worth fighting for

the calm of acceptance ... the calm of defeat ...

The truth that finally dawned

that life is but a sad, sad, song

that leaves a bitterness so long

after the bitter truth has dawned ...

I'm that little fly

that seeks the warmth of the golden sun

alone against the wrath of the big, big storm

i yearn for the golden clime beyond ...

Now the truth does dawn:

how futile, against such odds to storm

a little heart ... forbidden loves ... forlorn ...

a silent, willess acceptance ... to conform ...?

How futile to fly against the storm:

my little limbs are worn; my little wings all torn;

in silence i fold my battered wings ... to concorm ...?

in calm silence i await the bitter dawn ...
