falling away
ad memoriam
to the child we can only dream of - november 3, 2004

but the day ended with a smile falling away

the child is not yet alive
but already dying inside

if you listen closely
you can hear

from this hopeless pain

these dreams last only
for a moment
before they are taken away

joy is bitter and brief
and love turns blue and moves no more,
heartbeat silent on a cold november day

today
love was born

but the day ended with a smile falling away
