It all started one sad day
When memories just kept running away
You certainly felt alone and lost
Your life, your past under the dust
But you had us and we had you
You were hurting, that was true
But you always smiled at me
Even when you didn't recognize me
Hours of silence hunting the walls all around
All you could do was sit there and stare at the ground
Echo of a memory before it all started
Whispers of prayers it had lasted
By a night it was the full moon
We all knew it was happening but why so soon
You left us in the blink of an eye
After midnight under a black sky
Never has the air felt this rare
And birds kept flying they didn't care
Never has the silence felt this heavy
Never has the couch you'd sit on felt this lonely
You were the sweetness in the honey
The breeze when it was sunny
Your absence left a scar
There's still light and yet no star
You left but you're still here
Your words, your wisdom always near
When we recall a memory, your voice we hear
Words aren't enough to describe the pain
The world feels grey, no colors, all plain
Time stopped, no action stuck in its net
Not having spent enough time with you is now a regret.
