It used to be the sunlight shining through the trees
the warming breeze
would bring a smile to my face.
…
It used to be the song birds flying over me
in harmony
would fill my heart with such grace!
But what was once a springtime of a brand new start
now breaks my heart
I didn’t want you to leave…
I etch your face from memory on this day and then
you’re gone again
and all that’s left, is to grieve.
Oh sad spring
it doesn’t seem fitting that you come around
all light and sound
to a heavy heart.
Anything
diminishing my pain would seem a mockery
As all love for me
is torn apart.
When the light within is darkness, how great the loss
pick up the cross
as one who’s already dead
Let the songbird sing a dirge it is more fitting now
Would you allow
new dreams to be fed?
I etch your face from memory on this day and then
you’re gone again
and all that’s left, is to grieve.
