I hear rain attacking the window, Screaming at me to see. I slowly walk up to the glass, Wondering what it will be.
The rain is pouring out the clouds, Like buckets being thrown over the edge. I stare at the rivers being created, On the road of Sorrows Bend.
A tear falls as I remember, The love that I once had. The happiness, the laughter, Of my daughters dad.
But now he is no longer, "Lost in action" they said. I still mourn him every day When I get in and out of bed.
My daughter, she is brave, She loves her daddy so much. She still waits for his return, Sitting hopefully on the porch.
I wait for the day he comes home, To meet his newborn son. To smile again with his daughter, And kiss her loved up mum.
I love the man that left us, To fight at that dreadful war. I will cry with happiness, When he bounds in through our door.
I look back out the window, At that the river that's been made. I put on my brave smile, And my sadness starts to fade.
I know that what I have now, There's no need to pretend. Are all that I'll need. To live happily on Sorrows Bend.
