Piclavier

Rose

Lay the stones, lay them all here and now
Before the names engrave themselves
Close your eyes, take a moment of silence
She calls your name again
Hear me now, he knew the words to your love
he knew it everyday
Will the way guide her to your tears?
To tear the sadness down and away
Hear the whispers inviting from the other side
Where the embers are the only trace of time
Lose yourself in the wind of doubt and hesitate
What you breathe, who you call in times of need
Go away, his tears drowned him in his sleep
Now he lived forever with her dreams
He kept the rose, safe in his now cold hands
As the earth began to cry
