I hold the moon in my heart.

 
 

Seven years have gone.
Almost a decade, you know.
Nothing left to feel or say,
nothing left inside my head.

Every night I look outside
my teardrops fall over the grass,
because this night you won´t return,
tomorrow you´d still be gone.

Dreams and illusions are gone,
watch the grass grow old.
Because nothing else we can share
but the moon above our heads.

Lu Ann, I do not know him, nor you.
But after reading your One Shot, I miss him also.

I just want to be sad with you for a moment..................

Really a beautifully written One Shot, LA.
PEACE!

Seven years is too long a time my dear... getting rid of the old is the best we can do to survive and LIVE in peace....
They do not deserve that, especially if they left voluntarily... AND If God took them with him..., all the same - they need to rest at peace.

Very raw emotions and I feel the sadness in your eyes, washing over my thoughts like a rain shower... So sad to see that the life has left both of you to share only the moon...I liked it and I relate to it too...
