Though you're so long gone...

by Ash   Apr 24, 2008


Enemies turned all days to fear,
couldn't pass the time without you near.
Declared once my love for you,
only to be dragged along like a tool.

The tears you cried,
I felt the pain.
The days you never tried,
I held your head up high.
The times when your fears would never leave,
the burdens of your life I would heave.

Though you're so long gone,
every part of me continues to mourn.
Cos I'm still waiting and hoping to see your face,
to flow in the same love I once would taste.

Endlessly though but broken apart,
the memories linger - never to depart.
Reliving each moment of the precious dream,
looking back as it turned to a wasted stream.

Days and nights but turned so dark,
emptiness holding an unavoidable mark,
loneliness continued to creep in so fast,
why would things never last?

Though you're so long gone,
every part of me continues to mourn.
'Cos I'm still waiting and hoping to see your face,
to flow in the same love I once would taste.

Mesmerized by your every word and action,
fell into this fatal attraction.
Your eyes just always shone so bright,
you were my never fading light.

I'd give up everything for you dear,
I only wish to feel your presence near.
I'd hold you in my arms at night,
and build countless memories to soar a great height.

Though you're so long gone,
every part of me continues to mourn.
'Cos I'm still waiting and hoping to see your face,
to flow in the same love I once would taste.

It's a way of life unavoided along the path of love,
it's a feeling for which all continually starve,
days are endlessly dark and gray,
just sitting expressionless, trying to pray.

I've tried so hard to move along,
but a part of me within you belong,
I've tried to change my life and start afresh,
but each wave of hope continues to crash.

Though you're so long gone,
every part of me continues to mourn.
'Cos I'm still waiting and hoping to see your face,
to flow in the same love I once would taste.
