Tattooed Black

Tattooed the memories, of time spent with you 
The years shared together, a million too few 

Spoke of our secrets, had each others back 
Your beautiful portrait, now painted black 

You promised forever, but had to let go 
Your own pain too heavy, this much I know 

A hole in my heart, beyond all repair 
If had to describe it, utter despair 

A beautiful friendship, frozen in time 
The moment now ugly, that once was sublime 

Why did you do it, for I cannot see 
The smile that you fronted, it even fooled me 

My only wish for you, serenity found 
Heavens gates opened, harmonious sound 

Your demons now crippled, setting you free 
Now a Guardian Angel, to watch over me...
