Horizon

 

 

 

As the new year approaches

She is overwhelmed

And she is a little cold

With feelings of abandonment from all the injured souls

In the hands of darkness and despair

Around the world

 

 

As the new year approaches

She is nervous with conscious perception

Of a mysterious feeling inside

That all the wishes of children of planet earth

Will not be granted

 

As the new year approaches

The lady in green is worried

She is worried about the dark circumstances

That all sweet dreams suffer with

 

And she is worried

That she is going to fail again to reach her expectations

To end all the war

To introduce humankind to an unfolded mystery

Of how we can survive

How we can mend the broken boundaries

And how we all can triumph

Before the horizon succumbs to the dark side

For all eternity
