You're gone and I can't rest without you Nary a hair from your head to recount your last steps Lost are marbles from a bag or a flame to the wind But anything bearing the love of a mother must keep close My numbered days spent endlessly searching for you In some dark corner you wait for me Where do you lie until I retrieve you Your time extended indefinitely while gone from the world That's how you make a ghost
