Should I just start my grieving over the loss of you now?
We both felt like we were being taken over,
and had found someone that was so alike it's scary,
and that we had a close friend out of it,
but now I feel as if someone had died.
We had such great times chatting, joking, laughing.
Now your so distant that I can't even see your shadow.
I'm preparing my heart to say,
"You are gathered here today, to lie to rest, My Night and Day..."
I know you'd have a friend in me, forever by your side as you need.
Someone come hell or high water will be,
but the words you spoke match your actions toward me.
So fast so soon,
We got close as the sun are to trees,
but watch my leaves begin to fall as your sun you hold from me.
I try to water the roots to keep it alive,
but withering away I ask you, "is this our depriving hearts goodbye?"
