People were drawn into the square Like moths are drawn to fire A scent of spring was in the air The spring itself was higher And walking down the dusty path The memory comes back again And once again I hear your laugh And once again I hold your hand And once again I see your face Reflecting in the cup of tea And then dissolving into space I’ve kept that space inside of me I’ve kept your laugh inside of me I’ve kept your face inside of me... The faded carving on the tree Words... “+AK forever friends” Whatever happened to “NT?” Has nature lost its common sense? Did time forget about us? This isn’t true; it’s all a lie Imagine sky without the stars Imagine stars without the sky The sky is lit and stars seem bright Reflecting in the cup of tea They slowly fade into the night I’ve kept that night inside of me I’ve kept a star inside of me I’ve kept your light inside of me...

dear master, this is beautifully, sadly touching... i know all too well the feeling of having a friend slip away... your pen betrays too well the secrets of the human heart... sincerely, a sad tomato you're such a beautiful freak... i wish there were more just like you... |
