Farewell My Love

Alas, as  I leave you alone evermore

Breaking my heart, I must walk out the door

Church bells are ringing this cold monday morn

Darling my heart be all broken and torn.

Eternal peace I pray comes to you

Forever my darling, my love will be true

Graceful and elegant the way that you sleep

Heaven awaiting, your soul safe to keep

Intimate secrets alone we two shared

Joyful and tender, of eachother we cared

Kindred spirits entwined like a thread

Lost count how many times I should of listened to my head.

Maybe it's best that my heart spoke so loud

Now that my love is a face I seek out amongst clouds.

Over the skyline and each break of morn

Promises kept, from dusk until dawn.

Quaint and essential like breathing fresh air

Reassusring to know, though not seen you are there.

Someday reunited together once more

Tomorrow's awaiting through destiny's door.

Understand? Not really, why your life slipped away

Vengeful and angry, what more can I say?

With eyes seeking answers I humbly pray

Xexon your demeanour in every way.

Youthful forever in my heart you'll remain

Zante, the coffin where you rest free from pain.
