I Found My Future Yesterday

I loved you 
but I lost 
you,
I lost you 
to the halls 
of my 
heart,
oh I 
couldn't 
find you 
my art,
now I 
know my 
blood... is 
you!

I loved you 
but I lost 
you
I lost you 
to the 
atmosphere,
yet I feel 
you 
everywhere,
oh the air I 
breath in 
is you!

I loved love 
but I lost 
you,
I lost you 
to the 
sweet 
skies,
yet I 
always see 
you at 
sunrise,
now my 
day starts 
with you.

I love you 
and I lost 
you to 
tears,
not waters 
but the 
juice of joy,
love 
became 
our errand 
boy,
you are 
right here 
in the 
coming 
years.
 
I loved 
you, while 
my life last,
my 
warmth in 
winter... is 
you,
a treasure 
so timeless 
and true,
in you I 
see a 
future in 
my past.
