The Heart Of Once Living

I clutch it in my hand
Even though I cannot see it
The heart of the once living exists

I thought you would last forever
But I guess I should have thought never
Because we were not meant to be

I clutch the last of you in my hand
Even thought I cannot see it
I bear the heart of the once living

I kiss your forehead
I wave goodbye
Deep inside I start to cry
Holding my tears in
They finally escape
I never should have held on to you
Because you died after my long wait

I clutch the last of you in my hand
Even though I cannot see it
I kiss the heart of the once living
