Analysis of Eternity
In the middle of this storm I call my life
I'm surrounded by doubts and fear
As I stand to face this world alone
I long to hold someone near
As the restless nights remain the same
And the loneliness dwells within
I stare out my window at the stars up above
In search of the perfect friend
As this trial period in my life moves on
And my mood begins to descend
The pain and sorrow that I once felt
Seems to be coming to an end
For what is ahead I truly can not see
As I search for that love which will
Last throughtout eternity!
