Conbrio
Oh it seemed... |
Oh it seemed the pain was unconquerable The past days it buried me in quicksand And all I could do was breathe deeply Silently suffering and lamenting the ways of my world Oh it seemed intolerable -- our parting It was unbearable and all I could do was sit silently Suffocating in your absence in the ocean's heavy swell And dream of another time When my world was a kinder place Oh it seemed cruel and unreasonable And I suffered endlessly Weighted down by the oppressive clouds of a somber season Still, quiet, contemplative Thinking of our togetherness and our parting Oh it seemed endless and the pain incurable Then, like a sunbeam from the strike of an angel's harp It changed -- the day became bright And I rejoiced I played Thinking gently and my day was filled with your love Copyright © August 6, 1999 Michael David Coffey |
