Playing Gentle On My Mind

Love can never die

Your shirt still lays crumbled
at the foot of last nights bed,
and my ears are still ringing
from the words that went unsaid.

Thr scent of sweat still lingers
in the creases where you slept,
and the pillow stained forever
by the secret tears you wept.

You swore you'd never leave me
and as long as I draw breath,
your love will still surround me
till we are joined once more in death.

Your passing but a moment
between morning kiss and sweet goodnight,
so until again you hold me
I hold your image close and tight.
