MAYBE, SOMEDAY

Maybe, someday
sometime
someplace,
life will turn
back his joyful face

Maybe, someday
i'll be able to see, again--
stars that dance in Heaven
will shine for me again--
sun will bring his
warm joy to be, again--
breezes will cool my
tired soul, again--
and even love might come
make my life whole again...

Maybe, someday
sometime, someplace
time will gift me
with sweet forgetfulness...

i will be
free of sorrow, again--
and believe in a
better tomorrow, again--
and have some
faith in me, again--
and know, as truth
that i really
am free, again--

Maybe, someday
some time
some place
i will
be, again....
