The light of your soul



The hours go by,
Hopelessness start to show,
And even the strongest heartbeat it's found lost.

 The soul slipping through my fingers,
While your eyes gives the last hug.

 While she cries by your bed,
Loving you 'til the end.

 The impotence of not having a word in the destiny of the one you love,
When the bright of your soul,
Will go for his own.

 And with a last sight,
Your light was no longer alive.
