Tomorrow Should Be Easier

Light casts a shadow of her silhouette
Still, motionless, sitting there all alone
Detail missing the single tear drop fall
From her all but happy, watering eye

Glistening, slowly it slides down her cheek
Salty in taste as it touches her lip
Trembling, they close as more tears begin to fall
Ears crave music to soothe a broken heart

Tunes flow through headphones straight to her mind
Words filled with meaning reach where needed most
Calming racing thoughts, it's just not enough
The song choice doesn't always help her mood

Lyrics full of deception and heartbreak
Desperation for hope and new found love
Cries of uncertainty for the future
Yet inspiration for a better life

Mixed emotions from new love to heartbreak
Such truth written in so beautiful words
They describe perfectly how she feels now
Whether that's good or bad she can't decide

Gradually she starts to lie down in bed
Gently resting her head on the pillow
The silhouette synchronizes her moves
She stares blankly at the ceiling above

Still crying, singing along to herself
She turns off the lamp and all is pitch black
Wondering about what is yet to come
Only one reassurance came to mind

'Tomorrow should be easier', she thought
As she drifted off into a deep sleep.
