One-Hundered Percent True
The trees drift with your smile
As I stare and think
What a beautiful bond
That we graciously link
As the wind whispers your name
In and out of my town
As I picture you by my side
I stand proud in that white gown
“Stephen,” it says,
“Where have you gone?
Where are you to finish
Sheryl’s unique song?”
“Why did you leave?
Are you coming home?
Sheryl’s lost deep within
Her mixed-up zone.”
But no sign of you
No matter where I look
I used to open and read you
Like a never-ending book
I used to see your face
As I melt shyly down
I used to hear your voice
In your own singsong sound
I used to feel your skin
As close as can be
It used to be so clear
And now I can’t even see
You’ve been gone too long
And now I have to mend my heart
In my wildest imaginative dreams
I never thought we’d be apart
Your loss hits my world like a ton of bricks
I constantly repeat our time we spent
Because I know deep inside
You were nothing but Heavenly sent
I wander in circles
Trying to cope
I repeat questions and answers
Deep within my throat
I cry moon filled dreams
That will never come true
But no matter what I say
I will not stop loving you
Because words can’t describe
All these emotions for you
All I know is this simple fact
That they are 100% true
