And as my eyes steal tears away
My face won't show my pain
I'll honour your last wishes
Though it makes me as insane.

And as my eyes steal tears away
Distraught and so bereft
I wonder if you thought of me
And what you really left.

So as my tears just hide away
I'll take my heart back too
To stop me being broken
Is what i now will do.

And i love you sharing rainbows
as they're half way up to you
Can't deny that journeys painful
when my tears fall pink & blue

But i love you sharing rainbows
cos they're half way down to me
I'm so grateful for your colours
that connect your sky to me.

So i sent a whispered kiss
On feathers where you lay
It soared a million miles
To your angels far away.

As petals fall
An autumn share
Of leaves & trees
Their souls to bear

To winter time
A welcome host
Of spartan loss
And long lost ghost

The flowers fight
To hold their own
When freezing mists
**** all that's grown

Except of you
Which strongly fights
To show me
There is wrong from right

I treasure that
So evergreen
More beautiful
Than i have seen

So random bud
I'll treasure you
For showing me
Your love is true.

I went to sleep at starlight
I woke with falling moon
I dream't of us together
And you'd said it would be soon

I climbed right up to heaven
But it wasn't my day
I said "i really loved you"
But you said "go away"

The angels gently led me
And held my tears & pain
They whispered "she will love you"

Until you meet again

We're sorry that we couldn't save you,
We're sorry that it had its hold
We tried hard to just rip You from it
But that dream was just how it rolled.

That darkness was 'oh so' relentless
It dragged you right down to the core
And you couldn't see past the demons
That kept pulling you more and more

It blinded your eyes with such heartache
it stole all of your soul's dignity
Pretendng that it was your saviour
When you just wanted to be free

Free from that pain and destruction
But it kept you far and away
Controlled all of your thoughts and emotions
That's why we are here today.

And still whilst the clouds cry
On this beautiful day
I can't see a rainbow
Coming your way.

I've just scanned the landscape
It's confirmed all my fears
Despite so much sunshine
The sky still sheds tears.

I've just found your rainbow
But it's fading fast
A vibrant illusion
From your troubled past.

Those grey skies are calling
Please don't go my friend
Far into that darkness
Where it will all end.............
