As you Leave

I watch as you lay there, slipping away
You're pale skin feels so cool
as i gently touch your hand

So many thoughts and memories
racing through my mind
My heart feels so heavy
We haven't much more time

Your dry cracked lips quiver
as you whisper your last words
The emptiness consumes me
It's time you leave this world

I watch as you struggle
as you take your last breath
Now my heart is broken
Shattered by your death

Summer Air

Summer is coming around again.
Reminds me of you and me last year at summers end.
Yeah, you said you loved me.
Back then that meant something.

I guess for a while you thought you could get away with a couple lies.
Then the guilt ate away at you, here come the black skies.
The one person i thought i could trust
was the one person who couldn't be trusted.

Your lies ripped through my already bleeding heart.
Torn apart from the start, now ill depart.
My wounds will heal in time
But will i heal from this vicious crime?

Even though you can still see the blood stain on my shirt
I wont let the hurt show anymore.
That day my heart and dreams broke in two
All because of you.

Sometimes i hate to admit that i loved you.
Somehow i knew lie by lie as the wind blew.
Summer is here to stay as the sun sits above with a burning stare.
Its time you fade away with summers air.

Broken glass
Thats what I am
All in pieces
Like the original grains of sand

She's the one I used to know
The one I know now
Messages on a screen
And I really wonder how

How to make her feel
How to make her smile
How to make her quiver
Just for a while

Words on a page
Words without a face
I feel the breaking in my heart
Nothing can fill the space

Knowing that it cannot be
Knowing that I am lonely
Waiting to speak to her
If thats all it can be

Broken glass
Thats what I am
All in pieces
Like the original grains of sand.
