Is there another place where he still smiles? Can I touch him again through a bend in time Where this reality has changed and life goes on? Metaphysical nonsense creates heaven's Golem A shambling crippled comfort to my sorrowing |
My hidden voices speak no more No past life can help me now Stunned and mute they keep vigil As I weep alone foresaken Now I keep my quiet sorrows With bitterly learned new skills Stored away for my future lives In safekeeping for their need |

A Tsunami of grief has come and gone I am still standing Waves of mourning try to push me down I am still standing An ocean of memories beckons me forward I am still standing The placid sea invites me to swim in sweet sorrow I am still standing An undertow of false comfort beckons me in I am still standing Should I dare the hidden riptides of painful regrets I would certainly drown |

Every life that is lost Every spirit that has gone Every soul that transmutes Is part of my existance We are alone in the Universe Yet connected to each other I mourn the loss of part of me And all who now are with him Together in the fabric of time |
