It Came before the fall
The shadows came consuming
Destroying one and all
Raising doubts and questions
No solutions or resolve
Puzzles without pieces
Impossible to solve
My knees have not yet buckled
I stand with feet apart
Listening in moments
And forgetting of my heart
I'll teeter and I'll totter
While no one seems to see
My smile a painted portrait
To hide the inner me
Until the day I falter
And fall upon the ground
My broken spirit climbing
Without so much as a sound
Then they'll hear me cry in heaven
Awaiting a new birth
While my tears will paint a rainbow
As they fall upon the earth
