Even in death
Her last words ring on:
"I 'll love you even in death"
Like a bell that sits on church tower calling for devotion,
her words ring on.
Though not here,
the warmth of your touch
clings to my skin
like a plague upon it.
Time flies,
but the thought of you
sticks to my memories
like hair to the head
refusing to grow wings.....
Every night,
I see the invisibility
of your presence
hovering over me
I can swear I do.
I hear the echo of your silence
reverberating in my head
As you dangled between life and death.
Although you spoke no words
everything you said was heard
the words that came out of your eyes:
" This is how far I can go
someday we'll meet in a better place......"
but her last words linger on:
" I'll love you even in death "
"I 'll love you even in death"
Like a bell that sits on church tower calling for devotion,
her words ring on.
Though not here,
the warmth of your touch
clings to my skin
like a plague upon it.
Time flies,
but the thought of you
sticks to my memories
like hair to the head
refusing to grow wings.....
Every night,
I see the invisibility
of your presence
hovering over me
I can swear I do.
I hear the echo of your silence
reverberating in my head
As you dangled between life and death.
Although you spoke no words
everything you said was heard
the words that came out of your eyes:
" This is how far I can go
someday we'll meet in a better place......"
but her last words linger on:
" I'll love you even in death "
