Fresh strawberry is my favourite
It’s not like I chose or anything
It’s just a fact
Her emotions are her librrty
It’s not like she chose or anything
It’s just a fact
Her kiss is flavoured by memories
It’s not like I chose or anything
It’s just a fact
My presence is clouded by awkwardness
It’s not like she chose or anything
It’s just a fact
Her auburn hair glows like fireworks
It’s not like I chose or anything
It’s just a fact
Her love for me died like an ember
It’s not like she chose or anything
It’s just a fact

On days where steel clouds block the sun
And wind makes trees dance with bare limbs
The sky looks cold and uninspiring
It’s bleak canvas demeanour dimms
But don’t dispare or lose your heart
For dull grey clouds hold hearts of silver
And behind the mask of dappled sky
Beats a sun that’s so familiar.
For now you’ll need a coat and hat
To trudge the muddy lanes and ways
But soon the winds will banish clouds
And reveil and show once more the burning blaze.

Now my life is over
And the days of work are passed
Please think of me with kindness
As I’m here with you my last
Know I tried my hardest
Know I did my best
And now I am departing
To enjoy my final rest
Let memory sustain you
Recall the times we had
And know in hearts and minds as one
That I’m forever glad
I’m fulfilled my time is over
I’m relieved that struggles done
And in my rest I’ll live forever
In your memory we’re one.
So send me to the ocean
Where my body can be free
To travel through earths waters
And remind you there of me.

On the beach the shifting sand
Slips slowly like the pass of time
Drifting through my fingers grasp
No matter how my hands entwine
Dry the tiny rocks are loose
They cannot hold themselves together
Baked and parched they have no founding
Desiccated by the weather
And so I think of my hearts loss
No matter how I tried to grasp her
She slid away like sand in sun
To find the life she would prefer
And now I find it’s time to go
To let the tide wash over me
And let the water wet my shoes
So my ground will moister be
For with the water of the ocean
Mixed with the salted tears I cried
Will firm the sand as my foundation
And ease my gate and guide my stride.
And so I did you all remember
The tides turn, moons wax and wain
And so with natures time and tender
As days pass they take all pain.

Let the wind wash over you
Just let the air blow free
Feel the freshness touching you
Let the coldness bring you glee

Observe the blue sky basking you
In waves of bright sunlight
Bath in luminescent joy
Enveloped in light white

Stand tall and let the earth flow
In lines of orbit curved
And know that all the stars are there
For by you to be observed

And while you live in sunlit rays
And look to heavens deep
Remember that when life is done
Forever you will sleep
