Her sadness hung around her Like a suit of tailored tears. And her vision started to blur Knowing she lost someone dear. Goodbyes always hurt the most When the story wasn't finished When opportunities were missed And potential is diminished. She gazed into the black abyss Thinking about what could have been. The abyss gazed back into her Its loneliness crawled under her skin. But she heard a whisper in the wind Saw the sun's diamond glints on snow A lonely lark appeared to sing A song that only she could know. It made her step back from the brink Of the river never conquered twice For she was never left behind; on his way to paradise.

Abyss
Her sadness hung around her Like a suit of tailored tears. And her vision started to blur Knowing she lost someone dear. Goodbyes always hurt the most When the story wasn't finished When opportunities were missed And potential is diminished. She gazed into the black abyss Thinking about what could have been. The abyss gazed back into her Its loneliness crawled under her skin. But she heard a whisper in the wind Saw the sun's diamond glints on snow A lonely lark appeared to sing A song that only she could know. It made her step back from the brink Of the river never conquered twice For she was never left behind; on his way to paradise.
For my grandpa.
