I feel the weight
Of heavy eyes
Darkened too
By heavy skies
I’m looking for
Eternal peace
The road I walked
Some release
I paid the price
My body worn
Every sinew
Stretched and torn
Sorry is easy
I’ve done no wrong
I said it all
All day long
Please wipe away
My burning tears
Embrace me now
Ease my fears
I long for rest
And open eyes
Lighter now
Under sun kissed skies
