Packed memories in your case.

by Alexandraa   Apr 27, 2008


I saw your face, and a tear fell onto my cheek , you are the reason we love on earth , you are the reason we seek.

Sitting on the couch , sober tonight you were , I thought this was strange , my mother was drinking , yet you werent with her.

But I looked right into your face , and it was pale with so much pain , I realized right then all you wanted to do was keep completely sane.

And your husband sat there looking at you , his eyes as wide as anything , taking note of your every movement, ' I love you was all he wanted to sing.

You could see he wanted to savor you , hold onto every word from your mouth , he knew that sometime soon you'd be way more far than south.

Youd be in a place of which no one knows but many love to dream, somewhere where nothing would ever really be as it seems.

As I looked at your helpless face , I wondered of all the thoughts passing by , are you afraid to leave us all , are you afraid to die?

But I stopped myself when I admitted it so strong , because it was too real to see , and all I really wanted was for you to always be .

But that day your gentle husband came , telling us that you were gone , nothing had ever been so real , this I could have sworn.

The world stopped for what seemed like forever , and all that fell were tears ,no one wanted to open up , yet we all wondered if God hears.

And when they sent you of to that special place , we packed your memories into your case.

then the birds begun to fly , and they whistled and hummed to your didgeridoo, . and put you down on a cloud , there youll forever lay.

I saw your face, and a tear fell onto my cheek , you are the reason we love on earth , you are the reason we seek.
