The Dove

Oh how I wish you were here Only then would I have less to fear Never the less it’s made me stronger But sometimes your absence makes my day longer A dream is a wish your heart makes And of course it’s not something people fake If only I could remember my dreams I could figure out what all of this means My life is okay and I’m not complaining But it would be better if you’re the one explaining They say you live on in our hearts But remembering hurts like a target in a game of darts There’s an ache inside of me I’m waiting for the day I’ll be set free Free from the pain and feeling numb But I know that day will never come There will always be a void that can never be filled But I always go back to the same drill Let myself loose, smile, and breathe Focus on things that I know will never leave It’s okay to feel lost and unsure Brace yourself, you’ve got more to endure You will get through this one step at a time Embrace it all. It’s a gift. It’s a sign. Learn to trust and live through love And the damage will meet peace, my dove.
