Far Away Blues

Far Away Blues

Finding the Light in Shadows

I wrote this today. I created this today,

To move forward along life's pathway.

Verse 1:

Sometimes I feel like my world is too far away,

I hear echoes of laughter drifting like falling stars away from the galaxy.

I see faces smiling on the silver screen,

Yet I’m stuck in a space in between.

Chorus:

I will paint my skies with bright colors anew,

Find my rhythm and my truth.

Though shadows linger, I’ll hold on tight,

And create my way back to the light.

Verse 2:

The road is lonely, but I will find my tune,

I will dance in the rain, under a full moon.

Though they seem miles away, their voices fade,

I will build a bridge from the tears I’ve made in the shade.

Chorus:

I will paint my skies with bright colors anew,

I will find my rhythm and my truth.

Though shadows linger, I’ll hold on tight,

And create my way back to the light.

Bridge:

Every tear will be like a note & every heartache feels like an old broken phone line,

I’ll weave the web into all my creations so divine.

The heartache will fade, my creation will stay,

Like a compass guiding me through each day.

Final Chorus:

So, I’ll paint my skies with bright colors anew,

I will find my rhythm and my truth.

Though shadows still linger, I will hold on tight to what feels right,

And create my way back to the light.

I feel depressed today

Sitting in my room as I do everyday

I used to laugh

I used to create humor everyday

Somehow the humor was cast

Away in a faraway galaxy of light.

I will create art as it feels right.

Today I saw smiling faces

In photos with people going places

I feel secluded, as I am an introvert of sorts

I heard a multitude of gossip. and my heart fell apart.

I want to laugh after a good cry

And then I shall sigh, asking why,

I must get old and have pain.

My back and other joints have changed.

I sing a song of blues

To the tunes of yesterday, today, and future blues,

Of time and space.

Mother Mary is full of grace.

written & created from my dreams that flow into my brain in the shadows of the night to come alive with Word, video editing, music, and expressions of blues in the night finding the light in shadows.
