Once, you held me in your arms

Now I hold you in my heart.

Crying lonesome tears-

Everywhere, I still see your face.

Once

You dreamt of me

Now I pray for you.

Circling my fingers around your soul.

Everything I had planned—broken.

Once

You showed me love

Now there’s nothing inside of me but revulsion.

Coping—memories I wish to erase,

So I may be at peace.

Once

I held you above

Now that you’re gone, distress

Is the reflection in my life, but

That’s life, so I forgive you.
