Like The Earth That Shakes From Pressure
Like the earth that shakes from pressure,
Faults it cannot contain,
I feel the tremble from forces unseen,
Feelings of love not returned.
From the depths of my heart and the thirst of my blood
To the stars in the skies above,
I feel the tremor in your hurting soul.
It’s you who I dearly love.
You ask for questions not answers
And plead a single thought.
You say you cannot distinguish
The moments we long ago lost.
As I know I love you dearly
But cannot change my ways.
I wish you could stay forever with me
And never feel your pain.
I fear you won’t remember me
Fifty years from now,
But I’ll be thinking of you,
As the trees grow old and die.
Please recall my features,
Remember my voice and mind,
For certain we will meet again
In another place and time.
