Autumn Closure
The book is closed so suddenly
and I still don't get the end
A blank page is all that remains
There should have been much more to come
Hollow words, too late to share,
looking back, now you're not here
... I will remember you.
Guiding me throughout my life,
while sacrificing precious time
... I will remember you.
While reading back, page by page,
I feel you lived it all.
It makes me sad, but deep inside
It fills me up with endless pride.
Hollow words, too late to share,
looking back, now you're not here
... I will remember you.
Guiding me throughout my life,
while sacrificing precious time
... I will remember you.
I turn the page and start to write,
to pick up where you left.
And while I write I wish the end
will fill you up with endless pride.
I close the book and turn away,
for life's too short, you taught me.
I know that you will find your way
and closure overtakes the pain.
Hollow words, too late to share,
looking back, now you're not here
... I will remember you.
Guiding me throughout my life,
while sacrificing precious time
... I will remember you.
Closure overtakes the pain.
... I will remember you
