Be Afraid of the Dark…

Still Waiting
Another sunset at her window
tracing hearts on the glass
She sits, and she remembers
when the church bells ring
The wedding dress fades sallow,
on a hanger in her wardrobe
She inhales cedar and mothballs
when the church bells ring
He had a charming smile
and he made her promises
Her heart still shatters
when the church bells ring
She waited for him that day
standing on the church steps
Now forever wondering why
when the church bells ring
