Day after day it is all seeming to be the same <br />The music plays but… <br />its haunting melody had been heard many times <br />The sun rises and sets <br />The moon taunts me <br /> <br />A voice seems to whisper I will be here again <br />And so shall you <br />Staring at the midnight blue <br />You and I bound together forever <br />Damned to nature’s grasp <br /> <br />Shadows of the night and I <br />Both wandering aimlessly about <br />Staring at the same moon that taunts us er’ night <br />We carry the chains of the past <br />Tight, permanently imbedded into what once was our flesh <br /> <br />Prison faces, no uplifting sounds <br />The cries are silent <br />For to admit defeat would bring more weakness <br />Walk with me shadows of the night <br />Prepare yourself for lonely tears that are never heard<br /><br />Patricia Gale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-same-6/
