Trouble In Mind

That's what she sang, as she wailed, yes, wailed for her man, in unabashed heartbreak, she vows "sun's gonna shine in my back door some day," for in that wail is nothing but love gone wrong and troubled mind, the light and the dark places of the heart, and the sun's gonna shine, she sings it like hand waving high in a gospel choir, palm open, waving into the air above the head, reaching for the sky, reaching for heaven.

She knows love may never come her way, she knows and yet she wails the affirmation like a prayer in church, "sun's gonna shine in my back door some day," if not now, if not in this life, if not in eternity, don't matter, she wails it like a hand waving high right up to heaven.
