Untitled

The rain hits the freshly cut grass,
My clothes drenched.
Yet still I stand there,
All alone.

The skies are dark tonight.
In my hand clenched tight,
My only way of remembering.
My only reason to go on...

Tears stream down my colored cheeks.
My eyes, they swell.
My life, it slowly disappears.

As the rain hits the freshly cut grass,
My clothes are all drenched.
Yet I still stand there,
All alone.

Is this what life is supposed to be like?
Where have the smiles gone?
Is everyone’s heart caked with this grief?
This pain?

My pain...
It feels as if some one has shoved their fist through my chest,
And in their hand they clench my heart.
Squeezing harder, and harder,
Till it feels as if it will burst.

Tears stream down my colored cheeks.
My eyes, they swell.
My life, it slowly disappears.

As the rain hits the freshly cut grass,
My clothes are all drenched.
Yet I still stand there,
All alone.

Why was I not aloud to see you?
I don't understand what they want me to do.
All I ever wanted is to see you.
They pull me away,
From the only thing I was living for.

As the rain hits the freshly cut grass,
My clothes are all drenched.
Yet I still stand there,
All alone.

I tighten my grip (all alone),
On my only reminder (always alone).
My only memory worth keeping (alone).
Till the end of time I shall carry this with me (always).
Till the day I day I shall long for you (my love...).
Though you are gone I remain (to carry on),
I will live my life day by day (the pain).
Your voice echoes in my head (it grows).
I yearn for you're touch again in bed (the sweet touch).

My reminder, my only one.
Grasped in my hand as your grave is dug.
They lower the coffin,
The hole so deep.
Six feet under they will keep,
Your body, my love,
Will decompose.
But your soul with soar freely,
As mine longs to.
But I stay in this world and carry on.
With this reminder in my hand I cry one last time,
Allowing myself one last moment.

Forever, my love.
You shall be in my heart.
Never to leave.
