Tell me a fable of the day’s gone by
Of a time when hearts spoke the truth and love lasted till the end of time
Tell me a fable of the love I seek everyday
The kind of love that makes you complete and takes all your fear away

The story unfolds through the eyes of a man
Living life day to day, as best as he can
What is he to become when depression becomes dependent for life?
When all he looks forward to is the end that he wants to write

But to end the story so short would be a tragedy oh it’s true
How to get out of a world that is all just another shade of blue
From a distance came a small light of hope like the first sighting of shore
Though for this sailor reaching for it became a pipe dream, that and nothing more

Back he was swept into the sea of despair to try and come ashore again
But an illusion in his head seemed to spell the end
Then a footing was felt at a moment that he never expected to find
A new land lays ahead that holds an unknown abundance of magic to uncover all in time

Let this be somewhere that has a place for my heart
Is it so bad to find someone that makes you never want to be apart?




Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance

Hi Mereel...
You gave me a nice read here. Don`t know the anwer to your question, but I know this: "Search and you shall find"
I`m still searching, but one day the search will be over...So will yours
