I Still

Sadness lingers sorrow drapes my pain four years and still, I hear the doves cry
As I struggle not having my ride to die by my side 
As the pavement feels like quicksand slowly pulling me in we're the sky is always gray

Still, I stay holding my head up high so that no one sees me cry
When I bend and  have a meltdown time slow on healing wounds,
To deeply embedded memories of a love that fitted like a glove now flys like a dove
In a clear blue sky 

Sorrow for wish I do not want to  borrow hides in the corners of my wounded soul 
My mate has left a bitter taste of life alone tow peas in a pie had to say goodbye
Monalisa to her Picasso a love so hard to find like a needle in a haystack 
Flashbacks are all I have left of resting in pieces of my love
