In Deep Sorrow

With three bullets in my chest You thought I wouldn’t live on In shock your heartbeats calmed You died, but I survived. War is over, but each day I battle life How shall I live without you? You were my hope and my dream Now all I have is emptiness. Buried are you, but not your love It shall live in my memories My heart now bruises with regrets Certain things shall remain unsaid. As I close my eyes to feel you Tears descend to rest on your tomb While winds whisper your name Life without you will not be same. To honour your life and love for me I leave flowers on cold stone And as I walk away from you In deep sorrow, I keep looking behind. For sure, our souls shall unite The day we meet in unknown land.
