Just Once More
Just one more time
to lay next to you
to feel your love
and know it's true
Arms encircling
the one I so love
To kiss your lips
Like paradise above
To be alive once more
And not in this vegetative state
To feel one last passion
With the one I so adore
But like a wasted stamp
On a letter long unsent
Within words I hoped would show
My love is truely eternal
There is no way I'd go
But somehow,
Like a misdirected letter
Our plans, they ran aground
My dreams so deep, so shattered
To miss the one I'd found
So, in a coma
of numbed pain
I live
and often wonder why
I see now only darkness
Where others see blue sky
I look at your old pictures
Read old letters that you sent
My heart does start to ache
To where and why you went
Where you are, I often wonder
And cry myself to sleep
I only hope you realize
Just how my love was deep
I hope that you are happy
Fulfilled, with all you crave
I'll carry this heavy love
Into my final grave.
