Things can get better...

A stone cut figure stares harshly through the mirror

What once was a child, became chiseled from fear

The look in her eyes sends waves of uncertainty

The trust stripped away from the glint that used to be

My words of comfort are lost in the impossible time line

Holding back those blood red tears from spilt Merlot wine

Nothing more do I desire, to tell her there is always a better tomorrow

But I can see it in her smile, she knows more of pain and sorrow

The screams will get quieter, the yelling with cease

As the hurricane settles, so will the breeze

But I know that she can\'t hear me, I can never stop those tears

Darling you will get here, even if it takes eleven years
