Wave Of Darkness

Human Drama


Oh! This wave of darkness 
Home to only shadows 
Part of our love has died 
We drive for miles 
But we have no destination 

Wells form in baby blue eyes 
Darting, asking questions 
Stretching her arms out far 
To be held 

This child, she will never be held again 

She looks for answers still 
As recent as yesterday 
But nothing comes 
Only visions of Highway 99 
The brightness of the crossing line 
Reflects father's eyes on Highway 99 

Oh! This wave of darkness 
When will it be shed 
'Till the day every step she takes 
Be it left or right 
Still leads her into the fire 

Still reaching out 
Crying baby tears for a mother's arms 
That let her go on
