Between The Lines She knows no other way to look at life at past or on ahead And, takes each wish she makes and dream she dreams to white She knows no other way to ease the darkness that falls upon her So, on her paper lined with blue you'll find the heartache that she writes... She spends moments from the day that's painfully touched her heart And, somehow she finds the words by night to ease her pain She sits aside candle light or the moons gentle glow And between the lines she writes of all her rain... Between the lines you can find her handwritten prayer And, deep inside she hopes her words are clearly said She waits for God to read what she's been crying about And, just maybe his next move will be what he just read... With just the little light that she is provided with She stares at the shadows dancing around She takes in the loneliness the room presents her with And, writes of the memories the moment has once again found... Like the blue lines she writes upon is like the color of her heart But, she knows the blue can be bolder than it appears So, she writes between the lines that are stretched out before her And, waits for peace's promise to land ever near... She sits impatiently and she silently cries to the stars And, she writes while the tears fall warmly down her face Between fine lines she scribbles words that haunt the hour And, she searches for her once in a lifetime walk with grace... Saun Sauni :) |

There are lines of this that move me, there are lines of this that lose me...either way, welcome to a new day. |
