I wanted you near
in the family to see...
The incomprehension
for strength combined with illness...
{12 months. 365 days
8,760 hours. 31,536,000 seconds...
Tucked in tight to slumber deep
In the cover of darkness death does creep...
I rewind back to eleven years ago today.
My mind was racing...
Im not the girl I use to be
So don't try to understand...
One shot isn't enough I tell myself
I have to take two maybe four...
Time heals all wounds they say
I wonder where did that lie start...
Through a lashed curtain
I visualised two doors...
I believed that I was heartless
because I never let myself cry for you...
The white light of grief is blinding,
I can no longer stand the pain...
Your voice echoes in the empty spots,
where my mind's eye held fragile memories...
