Soon My Love must go away

Soon must die the fragile spark. As day gives way to endless dark. So soon must end my very heart. So soon oh much to soon to part. Let angels comfort, where she lay. For soon my love must go away. What are my tears to an empty sky? Who am I to question why? I make my heart her resting place. Yet find in me no healing grace. Her soul commands, she must obey. Soon my love must go away. As all of laughter does receede. How will this broken heart proceede? How shall this spirit carry on? When comes the day and she is gone. So many things I cannot say. For soon my love must go away. Oh silent gloom, midnight draws near. Here in my room a bitter tear. Darkness veil that she not see. The weak and fearful side of me. Though truth be told, my feet are clay. And soon my love must go away. Hide this hurting heart from veiw. That she only know my love is true. Grant unto her loving peace. that my love for her shall never cease. I owe her more than I can pay, And soon my love must go away Come sweet gentle loving night. for darkness leads her into light. Grant the peace that dreaming brings. That she know nothing of these things. Hear my grieving spirit pray. Soon my love must go away. I kiss the hand that held my own. For she must go her way alone. Lord how my weary courage fails. So great the cost that love entails How shall I stand upright today? When soon my love must go away. I cry my prayer that does not cease, In that I pray for her release. With sorrow I dare never show. For fear that somehow she might know. It's never gonna be okay, And soon my love must go away.For someone I loved (as best as I was able to) Written December 29th, 2001 © on Dec 29 2001 01:46 AM PST, Patric Patterson    0 • 1
