Life - v2
I have forever loved you, my dearest,
But, for you, there was nothing I could give.
Through my life, the thing I've held the nearest -
A broken heart, I can never outlive.
Life on this earth can be a heavy weight,
Especially, when I am all alone,
Trudging down the road, helpless against fate,
Living is confusing, so much, unknown,
Aimless traveling, a bum on a freight,
I can't fill an empty, bottomless hole.
Soon, I will be approaching heaven's gate.
'Til then, survival is my only goal.
But when my days run out, and I take flight
With an angel's wings, I will feel so light.
