And sometimes even tears are not enough,
And time does not heal the rough,
And the place only brings back memories,
And the fields and the green just tease.
A paradise that was and is no more,
A security that’s gone, for sure.
Fear replaced by sorrow and then by fear again,
But mostly the void you left,
That you left,
Never ends, never mends.
And sometimes the memory just scratches the soul,
You drown in loss, in a deep dark hole,
Closeness feels a bit vile,
The touch is disgusting, it breaks your smile.
You want to disappear, be part of something grand,
No longer want to know everyone, take a stand,
Getting attached is dangerous, to people, to friends,
To family, to the land, where it all ends.
Fear replaced by sorrow and then by fear again,
But mostly the void you left,
That you left,
Never ends, never mends.
And every smell and every sound makes you want to join,
To put an end to it all, to flip the coin,
You can no longer bear, the weight you wear.
And sometimes you just want to hug them tight,
Life is now like an unprotected light,
Can be snuffed without a fight,
With deliberate intent, out of sight.
And you have no real beginning, everything’s lost meaning,
They want you to come out of grief, but the throat is screening.
You no longer remember when you didn’t have a tear,
Your soul is hanging in the air, in borrowed gear,
Part of it was taken to the heavens, so near.
Fear replaced by sorrow and then by fear again,
But mostly the void you left,
That you left,
Never ends, never mends.
