(This one is for anybody who has lost a loved one.) Did it come so easily? Because you were all I have known.. Does your heart rest peacefully? Mines damaged, how to I dont know.. But I.... Well I know... I hated the day when you had to go, I didn't say all the things that I wanted to say, and I cant take that when you're taken away. but I feel you... ohh I feel you near me... I didn't say all the things that I wanted to say, and I cant take that when you're taken away. but I feel you... ohh I feel you near me... Did it come so painfully? A lovers dance we had sown.. Why must you leave so gracefully, I'm damaged, you're all that I've known. But I.. Well I know.... Goddamnit why did you have to go?!?!? I didn't say all the things that I wanted to say, and I CANT TAKE THAT WHEN YOU'RE TAKEN AWAY but I feel you.... ooh I feel you near me... We cannot go back. Can't go back. I cant go back. I must go on... I must go on...(why?) I didn't say all the things that I wanted to say. and I cant take that when you're taken away.. but I feel you.. ohh I feel you near me. Love is God. Love is war. Love is what your life is for. |

I could feel the repetitive nature of the mind as it churns thoughts over ad over trying to grasp and reach closure. This is an extremely realistic piece and I felt it very much. Very well done!! Just believe... |

i cannot take full credit for this, as it contains a few song lyrics from a song with the same overall message.. just thought i could stick them in a nice little poem. The song itself is so beautiful, but yes, so sad.. like the poem. Love is God. Love is war. Love is what your life is for. |

Hey guys thanks for the replies. To answer Shou-Lao's question, no i changed some things in the song, i just felt inspired by it. |
