Simple thoughts you taught me love
Dawn arrives I breathe you in and knew your pain
Standing on the edge of this continent
A speck against the backdrop of this planet among this infinite universe
In this moment against the backdrop of time
So long ago I prayed for you to walk into my life
So long ago I knew I needed you
I reach for you and your words still echo in my mind
"Slow down" "It's yours" "I want my body back"
The colors of this raging sea together with the storm above
Best describe my broken, throbbing heart
Three months I prayed to take your suffering
For peace for hope for sleep I got in arguments with God
Still not an hour goes by without a thought of you
And I wonder who I am now because
A part of me left with you
