No Fixed Abode

Is grief just intense love that has no home;
No longer a vessel to reciprocate?
Lingering in the solemn air;
A part of mourning we have to tolerate.

But if it is love, which no longer has a place to dwell;
We should welcome it with open arms,
Embrace it with all its memories,
Comfort the anguish, for it will do us no harm.

A cherished love, with no fixed abode;
We can't leave it out in the cold.
Open the doors and welcome grief in,
And treasure those moments of old.

To You Who Is Still In My Heart

You know, I could hardly help it. You were there, and now you're not. Unspoken words and sidelong glances, Your presence gone left a missing friend. I'm not a person from the perfect songs.

Time Is A Ghost

The blueness of the sky. Rains down from above. Filling my whole self. With sweet memories of love. Your spirit is here with me. Forever remaining close. And even when the sun goes in.

The Death Of Life

The stillness of the blood in my veins, pains my un beating heart. As my final breath hangs on free flowing chains, My fear is for now we must part.

For JK

Time stood still when you left us, though mornings turned to night. Day broke through the darkness, but some would remain inside us, we're all to human, our hubris marks us.

Cry

Sometimes I cry, sometimes I don't. Because I will, because I won't.

Missing You

I once lost a friend, a very dear friend, We'd hang out together and laugh loudly no end, We'd play cards and we'd chatter About things of no matter, Go walking together through fields and up...

Memory Tea

I watched that crimson colour brew, Becoming rusty, reminding me of you... Of your last words, on your last breath. Before you left me, and went with death. But I pull myself from that dark scene.
