Feeding The Fire For so long we both breathed friendly But, now I just can't believe you are gone Time way too short in the eyes of the skies And, my will for sacrifice keeps moving me on... I find memories out of the blue that stone me And, I keep feeding the fire to your being away Thinking if the skies agreed in what I surely did You never would have been taken away... I come across moments that I just can't let be So, I add them to the fire burning without you near Adding more moments to keep it ever going Trying to hold a part of you even closer here... Tenderly grasping at what my mind flows forth Eagerly wanting what was for safe keeping inside Before you know it I've captured a million more memories to hold And, you should see the fire how high... For, in silence it brings me to what you were about Kindness in streams like the waters through our lands And, each time I dive into the waters for comfort I feed the fire straight from my hands... We breathed friendly but the time wasn't long enough Because I'm losing everything when you built me up I've got another moment to add to that place Feeding the fire to your disappearance but finding your face... In it goes are the full remains of collected thoughts Feeling as I feed the flames everything I'm not But, I can keep it going with all I have from you And, the fire of the memories will just keep burning through... Sauni:)The Only Time I See The Sun Is When I'm Within That Vanilla Breeze.The Only Time I'm One With The Sun Is When He Shelters Me From The Rain. L.S |
