The Sad SongA Poem by Victoria ScottWhere are you going my child? What have I done that made you run away? You made the world open up to new adventures everyday But the crimson stain on our hearts Will remind us Will remind us Little boy, come and see the sun See the color rise into the sky And you’ll hear a distant bird calling Sing, “Its call is far but not far enough to reach
home to her, But in the storm she might hear.” Yet the sun retreated back into the sea And the moon hid his face in the trees As the darkness engulfed my heart, It took yours, It took yours. Sweet darling, Apple of my eye Never bid your loving heart goodbye For your smile lights up my world And the ghosts retreat without a very word You shine so bright And even late you are nights light. But even there are clouds in the day And the storms rage out into the night And the smile leaves your face Like a memory forgot Or a love story erased Don’t leave me now Don’t leave me now. © 2011 Victoria Scott |
