Somewhere

Sometimes

Life sucks

A dream dies

A child cries

A heart breaks

And there's no place

To run away and hide

Sometimes...

Some days

All's lost

Hope fades

The game's played

The rain pours

And there's no more

Wishes to be made

Some days...

But somewhere

I know

The sky is blue

The day is new

We'll get the chance

To get up and dance

Like we don't care

Somewhere...

Sometime

Some day

Somewhere.

Lost Me

I'm lost

Not because I wandered off

Pretty sure

I was misplaced

Set aside

Somewhere safe

Only no one thought

To remember

Exactly where

I'm out of sight

Out of mind

The dust collects

So does the time but I

Just wait

For a sign

For a sound

For someone

To find me

And clear the dust off me

Maybe even

The someone

Who lost me.
