The Aftermath of Sorrow

There is
Nothing and there is
Nowhere
A big valley
Of darkness and despair-

There is
Courage and there is
Fear
In between there is
No cloudy or clear-

A face that is
Beautiful or
Simple and plain
Looks for a
Hiding place within the rain-

A mountain so tall
It seems to touch the sky
Just as a mass of
Clouds appear in the eagles' eye-

No fires are burning
Where rivers run
And the rise of early morning
Can't escape the sun
