What is it to live with a presence That's lost forever ? I dream of you every night like The sky dreams of the moon And soon It will be dawn Only to realise You aren't here I will never see you again Can you cast a spell to turn the clocks back Or drown me into an eternal sleep Only to have you with me and her too To make time stand still, can you? Or if you may, we could travel back to A time when you, I and her, were oblivious of Loss and grief Alas! aches as such never find relief only to be Gutted with your memories Until Breath becomes Air Life isn't fair, I know But isn't it worse to fight not with you but your memories.

Memories
What is it to live with a presence That's lost forever ? I dream of you every night like The sky dreams of the moon And soon It will be dawn Only to realise You aren't here I will never see you again Can you cast a spell to turn the clocks back Or drown me into an eternal sleep Only to have you with me and her too To make time stand still, can you? Or if you may, we could travel back to A time when you, I and her, were oblivious of Loss and grief Alas! aches as such never find relief only to be Gutted with your memories Until Breath becomes Air Life isn't fair, I know But isn't it worse to fight not with you but your memories.
