A FEW FEET AWAY

The river flows down
Past the glowing colors
Of your eyes

The sun beats down
Lighting the way
Into your heart

The raindrops pour
Into my soul
Drowning me in love

The blood surpasses
Dripping out the pain
You brought forth when you left

The ship never came in
To prove to me that I've been waiting too long
You won't be waiting at the bottom to catch me
If I jump this time

The darkness overcomes
So I'll begin my journey to the end
Without you

The tears don't stop
Because happiness doesn't show its face
When you don't

Time doesn't go so fast
When I don't smile
Why should I?

Your name shines from this stone
Whispering it now, I start to fall
I'll never leave this rock
I feel close to you here

Your soul
Flows out to me from below
It rises through the earth
From where you are
A few feet away
