As I shrink into the shadows    I remember what was then    There is something missing    Like a piece of me...       Haunting mists are following me    you will never be again       Like a ship, on the everflowing seas    ever drifting away    life?s light blown out by a wind of unbeing    could do nothing more,    it was all lost, when you died.       Left behind I can recall    what you knew and what you were    All these thoughts and memories    unable to share       Haunting mists are following me    you will never be again       Like a ship, on the everflowing seas    ever drifting away    life?s light blown out by a wind of unbeing    could do nothing more,    it was all lost, when you died.       Left behind       The starlit passages of rain that fall    Infernal memories of dreams we had,    now ever in the shadows of the dead.       Alone I sit and wonder what went wrong    a sparkling candle, then you are gone    The pain that's glowing in my heart    Who would have known you would so swiftly depart?       Life?s light blown out by a wind of unbeing    could do nothing more,    it was all lost, when you died.       In mourning now,    we stare at the remnants    of a life so glorius.    Never to see, never to be, evermore    rushing at futile flickers    of hope in the dusk,    I am       Left behind
