Dead Silence (1979)
Dead silence surrounds me as
memories of yesterday hasten the
beat of my heart.
Thoughts of tomorrow pry on my
mind as I relive my past;
Seeing reminders of
what once was:
Fear now reigning the happiness I at
one time knew.
But time will take its options;
Giving me the breath of life
And the hope to someday regain
the happiness I sincerely need.
Yet I will smile today for I
know yesterday was mine.
