Gone Far Away Into The Silent Land



I hear the winds of autumn sigh. You were someone who I love from the heart.

You were the person who helped me through difficult times, your comforting words were worth much more than dimes.

Three leaf clover who filled my life with laughs and smile, these memories last for miles and miles.

When you were by my side, the world was filled with life; when you were not around, my days were full of strife.

Three leaf clover was a blessing, who filled my heart with love, you flew with me in life with the beauty of a dove.

Whether I was having ups or downs, you always helped me with a smile and never frowns; how was it that? I never saw your wings when you were here with me?

When your sight soared to the destiny could hear the faint fluttering wings as you left.

I closed my eyes and saw the multi wings were surrounding my saddest moments and my happiest times. You were my angel forever. I felt your wings brush against my face wiping away the tears I shed since I could no longer hold you in my arms, I would hang you in my heart.

We've shared joys and sorrows, laughter and tears. You've been my inspiration, as we grew up through the years.

When we were little children, we laughed and played together; then growing up you stood by me, through good and stormy weather.


Never thought I'd lose you, but here I am standing alone, without you by my side, We promised, but now you're gone, I hate that you had to endure such pain on my mind, your saddened eyes have left a stain.

I want to know what crossed your mind; unspoken words you've left behind.

We'll never be sharing thoughts you never knew. A peace has fallen upon your head.

A taste of sorrow we have been fed; it really is like a hole in our one swiftly dug but carved out by knives.
