unreplaceable is what this someone was
after all this time still death gives pause
once i was loved and lived the fairytale
every heartbeat n' breath felt alive; real
alas, now we are lost to each the other
at times the lonely world holds no colour
when two are one; mind, heart, and soul
one left behind may not ever feel whole
alone inside each fiber of spirits dwelling
as memory looks upon gold wedding rings
where love once laughed on a featherbed
hopelessly that life now ripped to shreds
all lost years this kiss is missed; it does
little good to further reminisce such abyss
where once a heart felt alive and worthy
no amount of sunshine finds the key; for
all wistful days of life's summer are gone
fading, still mourning, left alone is the one
laughters reflections of past turns to stone
ever grey grief remains in horizens distance
skies cast over darkly afore thunder's storm
anxious worm reaffirms wiggles in dirt home
one lone inarticulate lively spirit ne'er to return
as peaceful mists calm dusty bones silent urn
to be thrown into rapacious cavernous sea
yet green leaves sway in breezes melody
