Is it Time Yet?
You still stand in my memories
With such beauty
Oh, is it time yet?
For you to leave
Leave us in grief
In darkness
In yearning.
Is it time yet?
You still look over us
But from the clouds now
You painted my world blue
My heart aches
My eyes fill up
Goodbyes hurt
I hate that day
When I had to see your last sight
I longed to hear your voice
And talk to you once more
To smother you with love
I waited for you to open your eyes
To see your twinkling eyes
Welcome me home
Or at least so I could say a proper goodbye
The days without you are so blunt
How much I would give to Skype with you once more
For all that fun that was inevitable
For all the curious questions you asked me
For all the times you acted you did not understand
You have taught me many essential lessons of life
But not this one
The one about departure
I cannot even come close to express
How much I miss you
Oh, is it time yet?
