I Grieved
I grieved for you
You were gone from me, before you were gone
Not but ten feet away
And I grieved for you
You were gone from me
The words of the father, written by the daughter
They left deep marks on this soul
I grieved for you
You were gone from me
Images of my greatest betrayal were painted on my canvas
My downfall haphazardly flung across it
This painting was your greatest betrayal
I grieved for you
So far gone from me
Your smile greeted me, sickly sweet
Bitter and sweet
Distasteful
I grieved for you, and your smile was payment
My shining sun, my radiant moon
Now so dark, no light to be cast in my world
The father's words, written by the daughter
Penned in blood from my racing heart
They told stories of our hands held together around your undoing
Naught but stories
I still grieved for you
The daughters passing, the fathers lies
The last time our hands ever held the other, wrapped warmly around your storied passing
I did grieve
You were gone from me
