As the Moment Passes

As the moment passes, I walk alone. Solitary in my thoughts, I make my way through a sea Of blurry faces. I wipe my eyes, not crying. You had been so full of life, Made me see the world Could be enjoyed; And that the sun never sets, The world only turns away. You showed me the magic of rain, The many shades of gray, How beautiful a voice could be, When you spoke to me. You showed me possibility, And how the world could be Found in me. Now that world is lost to me, You took my spirit with you. Took the color from my world. My eyes don't touch the sky They linger on the depths below. You said you'd never let me go. In my bed, you're still with me. My eyes are closed, But visions haunt me Your frail hand in mine, Frightened smile shaking While life left, And you left me here. Alone to great the sun, As the moment passes.
