| DAYS OF SORROW WILL GROW TO SLUMBER I will return like a phoenix from the flame Fresh like mourning never came Days of winter will turn to summer The earth will be a blanket for comfort My rebirth will be marked with sunlight While autumn�s leaves lay barren beneath the snow Your gentle touch warmed its presence to a glow Washed upon my shore you bathed as an ocean To overcome me and take away all the pain You fulfilled a hunger I could never tame Then left my heart open so I should die Days of torment will become my power A deception weaved into a long lost grace Forever a savior will be borne of me As cruel days cooled into the night You took my hand & placed me in the light Your arms like shelters held me near And silently strangled any fears Like a snake you coiled yourself around my heart Then venomously tore yourself apart No more will it remain a burden I pray that sadness will subside DAYS OF SORROW WILL GROW TO SLUMBER Eric James COPYRIGHT April 17, 2001 |
