She's Long Gone

There’s no words that will bring you home,

Tears and cries made my heart a stone.

Doing well and feeling fine,

Still my belly’s full of wine.

My visions feed my sorrows,

As a flower that never grows.

Your cheek on my hand is cold,

There’s only dust now I’ve been told.

I may be miles away from you,

I’m only sleeping a day or few.

You’ve been on your way

Sadly for once maybe.

Suddenly you close your eyes

And memories are gone.

People say there is no lie

But I know what has been done.

Like the wind you disappeared and ran.

Leaving me like no one should be stunned.

Every morning a mocking sun,

Burns my eyes and makes me learn

That days are gone when life seemed fair,

Now I’m a fool and no one cares.

Going nowhere is not a path,

But being somewhere feeds my wrath.

You just left me in your sleep,

Now your smile hurts like a whip.

I may be miles away from you,

I’m only sleeping a day or few.

You’ve been on your way

Sadly for once maybe.

Suddenly you close your eyes

And memories are gone.

People say there is no lie

But I know what has been done.

Like the wind you disappeared and ran.

Leaving me like no one should be stunned.
