That glorious ruined face
that voice
I cry each time
because it hurts me
deep in my chest
and the grief of knowing
that this was the song
that said goodbye
hurts more than you know
hurts more than I admit
and he brought himself
to this music
always always always
he gave us
something of himself
and then I remember, always
always,
that you were the one who left
one bright day
with the sun before you
and you asked for water
and nobody could give you
just a sip of water
for your poor dry mouth
just a taste of water
to drift away on
and you left it playing
in your room
and everyone you love
couldn’t save you
couldn’t keep you
and I wsh
you could have had
that one sip
of cool water
This song always makes me cry. I’m crying now. And it reminds me of a friend of ours who died too young. It’s for dVerse.
