Is there purpose

lossnaturemusictimelovemortality

Is there purpose

In the randomness

Of disarray

One day this

Another day that

As the mood takes me

So seems the fall,

More apparent

As it draws closer

To the beginning

Of another day

Abroad

In the wilderness

Is there hope

In a passage

From one moment

Unto the next

When hearts beat in time

To a love song

Only to be lost

In the refrain

When a motif

May remain

But a key change

Leaves a poor boy

Chasing shadows

In a rainstorm
