Time is taken away, <br />Step by step it goes, <br />Born to an unknown day, <br />Nothing forever glows. <br /> <br />Light has left again <br />Into the deep sea, <br />Searching’s are in vain <br />For both you and me. <br /> <br />Live or let time die, <br />What is this hope for? <br />Do we know reasons why, <br />Longings drift afar. <br /> <br />I have waited long, <br />For minutes and hours, <br />Lonely is this song <br />When a shadow towers. <br /> <br />Beautiful morning bright <br />where have you been? <br />Now is here only night <br />and twilights between. <br /> <br />How shall this long be, <br />Plunge into the deep? <br />Will I the sunshine see, <br />Depress this dark sleep. <br /> <br />(This is from an unnamed musical in progress. The author does much music) .<br /><br />Peter S. Quinn<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-winter-poem/
