The Widowtree - Autumn Tears
Written by:Autumn Tears
Do you remember
Fingers of sunlight
As they were caressing your face
Do you remember
The leaves dancing in the sky
Then falling softly to their painless death
The picture is there
As clear as the glass within their eyes
As innocent as the song of mourning birds
Birds who cry if only to live for
But just one more day
To be like us their angelic faces bereave
And they are always asking me
Why must we forgive
Why can we not forget
If only to forgive
If never to forget
Read these words that are engraved upon my face
And then look away
Look away
Look away
