} skeleton jack {


searching, yearning
depressed bones
privately woeful
suppressed moans

lacking happiness
battling inner strife
wanting fulfillment
in his empty life

discontent and unsatisfied
blind to his own strengths
to achieve something new
he'll go to great lengths

to his delight he finds
something risky, something new
his empty soul now joyful
as into the air he flew

disaster strikes
and down he falls
caught by an angel
in cemetery walls

filled with doubt and remorse
he begins to mope
but in his failure
finds new hope

his joy, he finds
before him all along
he rushes home
to right the wrong

there he finds
his dearest friend
and now you know
the happy end
