(NO DRUMS THROUGHOUT)
The life she’d served by living in the moment
(NO DRUMS THROUGHOUT)
The life she’d served by living in the moment
Sending a message, but never with a receiver
“Guess what?”, she asked, on the kneeler behind the curtains
She smiled and she whispered
Her name was scratched, first in blue, then in black
And, then she said to us what was unexpected
We heard the pin fall, it scared the silence off
Words just wouldn’t come out
Leaning on our shoulders, she knew we’d be there
There’s never no question, without the answers to them
Leaning on our shoulders, she knew we’d be there
She knew we’ll not defer, and leave her to suffer
(Guitar SOLO)
“Sin without deceivers, a God with no believers”
The poison through the stream
They say could help her smile
Sailing by the winds of silence, she smiles
Leaning on our shoulders, she knew we’d be there
There’s never no question, without the answers to them
Robbing her of her faith, traces of hope she saw, but
She knew we’ll not defer, and leave her to suffer
Her silver hair, her rosy cheeks, her sparkling eyes
Came to life with the spring
“Guess what?”, she asked, but this time we listened
“I’m moving again”, she said, but this time
It was far away

Hi AJ...I really like the creativity and imagery you've created in this piece. This is woven like a beautiful story.
I have not read you in so many Moons and I come now, to sit amongst your words and find beauty. I am not knowing who this is about,but I am finding reading such very moving.
Very nice.
There is no such thing as far away.
I know that for a fact.

amazing, I'd definitely have to say "sin without deceivers, a God with no believers" stood out strongly to me.. as did the whole post itself but especially that. And a wonderful photo at that.
