The Nameless
I never had the chance
To know who you were
The questions in my head
Spinning, ripping, crumbling
Hearts sink below each sunset
Our Christmas turned sour
The blood and torment now
Sorrow filling our cups
The thought of it all today
Knowing we'll never know
What you could mean to us
What you would have been
Daughter and mother
Son and father
Words resound in my thoughts
Sadness rings his bell loud
Tears crash making great rivers
Darkness falls on two hearts
Souls buried in the sand of loss
Time’s hourglass runs another life
Down to the depth of never-was
Eyes in the darkness watch me
Broken and weary of future
Holding onto nothing but love
You were my nameless future
A miscarried world of mine
