When hopeless words escaped your lips
The last, I thought with sudden bliss:
The way a broken heart can feel
When love has beat it tender.
Your eyes fading as limbs all fall
It leaves you but I loved it all;
Tears without the feeling;
Words without the sound.

My love; my loss; my broken mind,
So openly preoccupied -
The heart I left in shreds
To remained tethered to your corpse.
But everybody understands
And no one leaves a helpless man
Or stops speeches muttered to a grave
Infected with remorse.
