Through the times of sorrow when my heart feels empty,
and the Sun which was once shinning, and warm, now feels dark, and my soul seems sad, I search my confused mind.
Will the clouds ever part, will the stars ever shine, I ask myself in such a time. Then I realize I have put a sheet between myself and the world.
Reaching up, I peek over the edge, and see all the happiness I've missed out on. Still I stay, just watching as the world goes by its Joyousness, and stand I alone in the shadows.
