I’m left to sleep wide awake
And instinctively breathe all alone
In a construct that owns my name
Determined to steal my memories
But I won’t let go- so easily
Like a martyr I’ve made my stand
Determined to outlast as an outcast
I dream of our time in Sunshine’s past
Reliving every moment once again
Inhaling and smiling for a few moments
Until the horizon becomes dark again
I hold you close forever in my heart
Whispering your name in every thought
I love you too much… to ever let go
