Day 3..........

Black veil covers her light,
I call
but no answer comes
But in my heart
I trust someday I will be alright
         someday.......
                         but not today

Today is dark and a cold wind blows
bare hands like winter branches
reach upwards
grasping at thin air
waiting for spring to return.

Ever hopeful
they too trust
that someday
things will be alright again
that balance will return
             someday..............
                          but not today
