Cemetery

Rows and rows of broken dreams
Letters carved in stone
Friends and family left behind
Shattered and alone

Some have flowers, some have notes
Some are simply bare
A crying woman speaks to one
A painful muttered prayer

Groups of people dressed in black
Gathering to cry
Dropping roses on a box
Asking themselves why

This grave is the one I seek
Saddest of them all
I touch the stone and start to cry
To my knees I fall

Wish I could have said goodbye
Could have saved you from this fate
"I'm sorry" whispered as I cry
Guess I was too late

Forgiven

Can you be forgiven, If the person isn't here. Their aura still a presence, A memory so clear. A friendship was not two way, I never knew it then. But now I cannot call him, Or ask him why and when.

Gutted

There goes a smile, a face I will never forget. There goes a friend, a friend I had never met. There goes an inspiration. Now wilts the rarest Rose. Such a tragic end to a beautiful beginning.

No One But You

A hand above the water. An angel reaching for the sky. Is it raining in heaven. Do you want us to cry. And everywhere the broken hearted. On every lonely avenue. No one could reach them.

Fallen Star

They could never understand what she set out to do,. Instead they choose to beat you,. When you got weak, they and he loved the sight,. Of the dimming brightness of your starlight,.

Forever Young

So much hope and ambition, i remember the day. Taken too early, now so far away. Life emptied out, memories all thats left. Reality hits me, takes the breath from my chest.
