DUSK

See my hand is moving

touching all that's real

And once it stroked love 's body

now it claws the past.

The scent of a flower,

The colours of the morning,

Friends to believe in,

Tears soon forgotten,

See how the rain drives away, another day.

If a leaf has fallen

does the tree lie broken?

lf we draw some water

does the well run dry?

The sigh of our mother,

The screaming of lovers,

Like two angry tigers,

They tear at each other,

See how for him lifetime's fears disappear.

Once a Jesus suffered,

Heaven could not see him.

And now my ship is sinking,

The captain stands alone.

A pawn on a chessboard,

A false move by God will now destroy me,

But wait, on the horizon,

A new dawn seems to be rising,

Never to recll this passerby, born to die.
