I awake to the silence
He's gone and my heart breaks
Ghosts of us dance on the walls
A memory in every tear drop
Loneliness haunts me
I hear his voice on the wind begging me not to cry
Yet this sorrow haunts me as I breathe in the smell of him on the pillow
The pathway we made together grows cold as I walk it alone
I tell myself I can do this I can live witout his warmth
Without his tender caress on my face to reassure me
If he was my everything he was my very reason for breathing
Yet here I am taking a breath in and one out to carry on
I learn slowly to live without him
To close the door on my past dreams and find the strength to start new ones
The ghosts on the wall guide me onwards
from the dusty room I walk away and lock the door
I have to stop these tears and the pain in my heart
I will honour his love and respect his life by learning to smile again
A lesson I am starting to learn
That it isn't wrong to live when he is gone
The cold earth isn't where I belong but to walk beneath the sun and stars.
He will be eternally with me in my heart and mind
His hand will be there to guide me onwards and in my dreams I still can see his face
He was my all my perfection my first true love
Death called him to her arms and he left me
But here when I need him I shall find him and see his smile.
