Ashes to Ashes...Dust to Dust
Lost Love…
A love that sets itself apart from any other
The solitude you feel, now becomes your lover
Memory…
Takes hold of the hand that's your mind
Masterfully skillful, in the sight that's hind
Truth…
Now buried in the practice of denial
Tormented by uncertainty, all the while
Anger…
Your shield impulsively sets itself in place
Disguising the pain, you'd rather not to face
Ashes to Ashes…
You pray: if only these words you could hear
The promise to be better falls upon deaf ears
Dust to Dust…
Your wish: if only to fade away
No longer caring, to exist in this place
And yet…
You carry on because it's not just about you
You carry on because there's nothing else you can do
And so…
You accept the things you don't understand
And endure in this life as best you can
You carry on simply because you know you must…
Your love…the ashes
Your heart…the dust
