Gone

today i saw your face
so i turned away
feeling bitter taste
i left no words to say
can't help but feel pain
now that you are gone
as i fall into the light
of the silent morning's dawn

whispers of memories old
catch hold of dying breath
and grasp onto my soul
ripping out what was left
tears stream down my face
i'll listen to these cries
and fall without a trace
into the darkened winter sky

but love is not so sweet
to let go without a fight
so deep inside my thoughts
i'll struggle through the night
i land inside the burn
of the scorching morning's sun
to melt away the cold
can't believe you're gone
