Separated by Heaven
Then she let go...
While I sat with silence at my side
Where no sound could comfort me
No words to mend, no soul to lift my spirits
No love to live again...
And her hand slid slowly
The soft cotton, catching her by a thread
A graceful interlude of passing
As she faded from my bed
And the weight on the pillow sank softly
As she settled with a grin
Beautiful before and afterlife
She ended like few begin
She left me smiling
But I could not leave her the same
To live a death is unbearable
As long as one remains
And love alone is so lonely
Sharing is what got us through
Now we are separated by Heaven
But wait til then, I will for you
While I sat with silence at my side
Where no sound could comfort me
No words to mend, no soul to lift my spirits
No love to live again...
And her hand slid slowly
The soft cotton, catching her by a thread
A graceful interlude of passing
As she faded from my bed
And the weight on the pillow sank softly
As she settled with a grin
Beautiful before and afterlife
She ended like few begin
She left me smiling
But I could not leave her the same
To live a death is unbearable
As long as one remains
And love alone is so lonely
Sharing is what got us through
Now we are separated by Heaven
But wait til then, I will for you
