The Face I Loved

The face that was familiar is no more
Yet in my dreams ,he is alive again
If ,by a chance, his life could be restored
It would affect me like the hidden chord
King David composed and played  for love of God.
Oh, one must die and one must here remain
The face that was familiar is no more.
Yet in my dreams ,he is alive again

This was really cool too. There is a certain darkness to your pieces I have read though a light still appears, if only faintly. That is only my opinion. Nicely done.

Is the grieving real? If so I am very sorry that you are grieving.

Yes, the grieving... thank you, Chris.
