Shadows and Whispers
Shadows and moments
Whispers and prayers
Tokens of torment
For now you aren't there
Jewels and pictures
Smiles and tears
Permanent fixtures
Gone after all the years
Empty and frightened
Loved and broken
A dark day couldnt be brightened
While words are left unspoken
Chances to be taken
Risks and fear
A heart breaking
Sobs that no one can hear
A soul escapes
Pain was so near
Can't out run fate
The ending is always clear
