"Barren Ground 2"
Life is full of twists and turns
Love freely sent, not returned
On angels wings the devil flies
While deep in hell my heart does lie
Rose petals sent across the miles
Trying to force a single smile
A smile to light the darkest day
A smile never seen, I fear to say
Rose petals sent to mend your dreams
Remove the pain, return the gleam
Nightmares spring from pleasant dreams
Stay awake late....avoid the screams!
Rose petals sent to a far off land
Hoping to lend a lifting hand
Rose petals placed on barren ground
To soften the fall, muffle the sound
Life is strange with it's twists and turns
Love can cure ... yet often burns
Rose petals sent to quench the flames
When no ones around to ease the pain
On barren ground I plant a seed
Will flowers grow.... or only weeds?
On barren ground life could spring anew
If these rose petals are nourished by only you!
