Dreams from Grief

Blow away

A lone 'lash on your cheek

Whisper words

Of a desperate wish you seek


Far below

A boy grieves his loss

Alas, for him

His love was shot


Reach out

A solitary hand towards peace

Grab hold

Of the last falling autumn leaf


Far beyond

A girl cries out

Alas, for her

It was not heard


Hold close 

A memory of your smile

Feel pain

Of a self-loathing trial


Far off

A soldier raises his gun

Alas, for him

The fight had already been lost


Imagine love

A miracle saving the soul

Dream on

Of a world forever whole


Far gone

Are the times you've breathed

Alas, for you

This is the last one
