Torn From the Pages of My Heart
Still
It's been long since you breathed your last
But the cold-hearted reality's still so hard to grasp
I still sense the faint wisp of a presence hovering all over me
Begging me to set you free
The wound your departure caused is yet too raw for time to heal
The loneliness seems to have no remedy
Smithereens of you still vibrant, still floating in my head
I'm bound with regret for the things yet unsaid
I'm by the shore where the stars witnessed your passing
And they still shine as brightly as before
Everything seems untouched except the fact
That you are now where I am unborn and you're not coming back
Then the waters catch my tears and the heavens came down to cry with me
The waves, touched with sympathy, reaches for me...beckons with gentle murmurings
And my heart ponders on...asking that same question born on the same day you faded
"In the arms of Osiris, would sleep be at last dreamless sweet?"
But the cold-hearted reality's still so hard to grasp
I still sense the faint wisp of a presence hovering all over me
Begging me to set you free
The wound your departure caused is yet too raw for time to heal
The loneliness seems to have no remedy
Smithereens of you still vibrant, still floating in my head
I'm bound with regret for the things yet unsaid
I'm by the shore where the stars witnessed your passing
And they still shine as brightly as before
Everything seems untouched except the fact
That you are now where I am unborn and you're not coming back
Then the waters catch my tears and the heavens came down to cry with me
The waves, touched with sympathy, reaches for me...beckons with gentle murmurings
And my heart ponders on...asking that same question born on the same day you faded
"In the arms of Osiris, would sleep be at last dreamless sweet?"
