Lanterns By Bobby Stevenson



for fiona :-)

Don’t think that all of this will last,
When the darkness wears your heart away,
One day,
Someday,
When you least expect it,
The lanterns,
Will bring the light to stay.

Don’t cry at the moon when no one sees you,
For all of us are made to pay,
One day,
Someday,
When your hope is dying,
The lanterns,
Will light another way.
