Without too much thought
I had put a dot
To say goodbye the least
But the sentence stopped
I had gone to sleep
There’s a full moon dying before my eyes
There’s blue and twinkles and fireflies
I’m thinking of tears and finishing beers
It’s time to mourn my best friend for years
There’s a duel with time
Going on inside
I close my eyes and there I lie
Everything breathes and
Down drip little footsteps
On my sleeve
Hear my blood, my flow
From far to here
A distant cry erupts
From deep within
A drumbeat inside
Is deafening my ears
Never stop to ponder
Why you came to be
There’s a black wolf crying at midnight
There’s a mist descending, soft light
I’m lifted up and I’m floating away
It’s time to mourn my best friend today
Without too much thought
I had put a dot
To say goodbye the least
But the sentence stopped
I had gone to sleep
