~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Oh how life is fleeting.

Years pass before you are gone.

Memories of you fade into dust.


Oh how life is fleeting.

In a snap, your consciousness fades.

Your presence in my life disappearing

Never to be seen breathing again.


Oh how life is fleeting.

One moment you're there then you're not.

Your presence in my mind

Tinge with sadness.

Oh how can I erase you from my heart.
