Tonight I saw you in the dark blue sky,
I tried to grab you but you quickly flew by.
This night I felt you riding the wind and it felt nice,
I wanted desperately to ask you for a bit of advice.
Life has lately been full of confusion,
I often wonder if it is all an illusion.
Sometimes when the wind blows I tell myself it’s your breath,
Then I remembered you had left me at the time of your death.
My tears ran dry the day I cried and cried,
To taste the salt again, Lord knows I have tried.
I went to say good-bye that day with the setting of the sun,
At that moment I realized the pain had only just begun.
At first I got mad and turned my back on life,
Your departure ached like the stabbing of a knife.
Then I went crazy and cursed at the day,
I no longer knew the words to say.
You shined like the sun’s reflection off the blue green sea,
Your golden sunlight warmed the skin of me.
I told you things I never could otherwise have said,
I still long for you to sweetly sing me to bed.
At night the moon reminds me of you,
I wonder if then you see me too.
I wait for you to shoot through the sky,
Leaving a mystical trail, as if waiving good-bye.
Is this good-bye forever, all is now silent, now only a vivid memory?
If this is true, well not telling
