As I sat by my window,
Looking out at the grey sky.
Tears rolled down my cheeks,
As its finally time to say goodbye.
Goodbye to a friend
Who was always there.
Goodbye to a family
Who always showed care.
Someone whom I turn to,
I don't know how to move on.
Someone whom I relate to,
But now you're gone.
But then a blue bird came,
And sat by my window.
The sun starts shining,
And evaporated all my sorrow.
Good memories came
To wash away the sadness.
Mended my heart
And filled it with gladness.
I wiped away my tears
And now that you're gone.
I can't give up now
I have to move on.
Light After Dark
