Every Little Thing


My heart is drenched in sorrow 

I wear a mask to hide the shame 

Your haunting memory

Brings me to my knees

 

You're everywhere

I can't sleep

Too afraid to see you 

To hear you

To feel you, one last time 

 

I try to be strong,

For you 

I close my eyes and pray

Hoping, 

Wishing,

That you'll be there, in my dreams 

 

I taste you,

Feel you 

As your blood mixes with mine 

 

The touch of your hand 

Your voice echoes through me 

Light dances around you 

It begins to fade,

As I open my eyes 

 

Leaving me

With silence,

Darkness,

Pain

 

You're gone 

Even memories begin to fade 

Your sweet taste 

My bitter tragedy 

An undying love,

For a tender shadow
