Like Death Passed Through


Our life together is no more,

It’s like you died

An invisible death,

That only you and I know,

Your death began

When I first noticed

That you weren’t acting like yourself,

Then I found out 

You were with someone else,

It was like a little part of me

Had died along with you;

It’s like you had died

And left me forever,

You had left me to weep

And cry,

And pity myself 

Over my loss of you,

Alone forever;

And as I laid your coffin down

In my mind,

The sky opened up

And cried their cold tears with me,

Weeping for all that was lost.
