In the Graveyard


I’m standing here in the graveyard, looking into space,
Wondering who took your soul and feeling out of place.
A sword sinking into my heart, as I realize you’re gone.
First light was coming before, but now won’t ever be the dawn.

I can’t believe how much I miss you- could you feel the light?
Questions sinking, never stopping, I thought we were all right.
I couldn’t see your hurt or pain at all- I didn’t know.
Was there anything between us that you didn’t show?

Leaving my heart here though I know yours is in heaven;
No one else would take it anyway- nor could I give it again.
The breeze dries my face but nothing could dry the tears of my heart;
I wished to say I love you once more before death tore us apart.

I know I’ve got to cry my tears; try to let you go,
My heart just doesn’t want to believe and break again though.
I’ll remember you, and come see you when I die,
Right now I’ll lay the flowers down and see you through the sky.

  1. The graveyard of my childhood
    My innocence and trust
    The graveyard of my joy in life
    But visit here I must.

    The graveyard of remembering
    The pretty little sweet
    Who knew little of ugly world
    Of heartbreak and deceit.

    The graveyard of little joys
    That come from childish hope
    This graveyard shows true emptiness
    That drives one to a rope.
