September

Looking back...
on all the wasted years
All the time forever lost
and oh so many tears

By now we'd be in Houston
We'd be living out our dreams
but life is forever changing
and now there's only me

I think of all the time we couldve had
and it just seems so unfair
It's crazy how time can just run out
You would be twenty six this year

Now you're gone. you've disappeared
and my very soul is in danger
The world is not what it was
It has become a mighty stranger

You told me once, long ago
That you would always be here
Even through my darkest days
and my everchanging fears

But you're no longer here
your love is silent in the grave
I think about those long lost years
And the life I couldnt save

But it was your voice all along
That was telling me to survive
and it's your love that still surrounds me
For within you I came alive


Even years from now
I know I will always remember
nineteen shards within my heart
and all the days within september
