Loss
Loss
In the dark of night
I hold loss in my heart.
I hear the angels call
and the tears start.
In the dark of night I beg to hold
and only get the empty cold.
Loss surrounds and I drown.
Loss breaths and I die.
I count the minutes
to eternity and fear never knowing.
I age in time without a sign showing.
Loss wraps me and I am consumed.
No escape, only bitter doom.
I fear its silences and seek its voice.
I live without any choice.
Loss creeps in silently
and steals my breath away.

In the dark of night
I hold loss in my heart.
I hear the angels call
and the tears start.
In the dark of night I beg to hold
and only get the empty cold.
Loss surrounds and I drown.
Loss breaths and I die.
I count the minutes
to eternity and fear never knowing.
I age in time without a sign showing.
Loss wraps me and I am consumed.
No escape, only bitter doom.
I fear its silences and seek its voice.
I live without any choice.
Loss creeps in silently
and steals my breath away.
