Today

Today I came to bury my love deep within my soul

to let him go, maybe for him is some kind of relief to know

that is over and he could go on, on his own.

Today I put flowers on his tomb; life can be so cruel,

I felt sympathy for what he went through

and yet in my mind I’m convincing myself, it’s over.

Today I feel the emptiness that once he had filled with so much happiness

and yet our friendship is slowly vanishing.

I was there when he needed me, near by the phone or

waiting for the door to knock, but I knew he’ll never come.

Today I broke all the chains from my heart to set myself free,

from wishful thinking and eventually from him.

Today I put flowers on his grave, leaving behind what could never be mine

in this solitude ride, I’m saying tearful good-byes.
