Limbo

Stefanie Bush 1973 (Oh)

Someplace in time I wish I could find
A way to get you back
I walk in circles perilous
An empty shell of what was
Darkness surrounds me
I can't see thru the fog.
I only have tomorrow
In each day that you've been gone
Not certain of the outcome
I dwindle and fade
In Limbo...
Not knowing how to get thru
This anger and hate I have inside
Needs silenced, Justice and answers.
That's the only way to escape this limbo.
