Mourning

Mourning

(To Leif, with my deepest love)


 

Listen to the sound of my heart breaking

It slices the world in two

Never again to be reconciled

With childish joys and play


 

See the light in my eyes fading

The shadows floating between worlds

Slowly growing inside my mind

And taking hold of my life


 

Hear the sound of her heart breaking

My love knew no boundaries

Yet promises can no longer be kept

To keep despair at bay


 

Watch the breath of the morning

Slowly fading on the window pane

Holding time hostage

Until I find myself again
