Keepsake

Peace

find your way

hold on to me

don't let me sink

take me to the highest peak

take me somewhere that I can finally see

beyond these walls I've built

from bricks of insecurity

I hear you but I see no face

day by day I forget your embrace

I can still taste the bitterness of grief and resent

I'm not over it and that's okay

I’ll find my way through this maze

I’d be lost

if not for the ones I cared about

(with every step you give me strength)

every step you bring me joy

You brought me joy

I need you now

more than ever

never did I think you would ever leave me

every step brings me closer to you

closer to death

closer to you

will I be remembered

or will i be ignored

when it’s my time for me to go

plant another seed to grow

to do is not to try

my fate is no one’s but mine

let me be happy with who I’ve become

wherever you may roam

I will keep a part of you close

I’d be lost

if not for the ones I cared about

(with every step you give me strength)

every step you bring me joy

You brought me joy

I’m lost but I’m not broken yet

what once was Hope is stolen now

these words unsaid, my broken vow

I can’t forgive myself

If I could just say one last thing

Is that I love you and I care

And I wish that I could’ve been there

Left behind, emotions high

I never got to say goodbye

I never got to say goodbye
