Old Whispers

it's after daylight
and the earth is shutting down
the darkness is all around
i have never felt so alone..
the whisper in the wind
brings back memories of you
i shiver with the distant touch..
of the wind..

singing softly in my ear
your voice, the wind, is all i hear
though straining, gaining a place in life
it's proving so hard to erase you
from my heart...

the last glimpses
of light are ashen on my face
my feelings now delicate as lace
could i ever trust him?
i have that burning desire
to rush into all the fire
maybe rid myself of feeling
may the darkness hide me...

singing softly in my ear
your voice, the wind, is all i ever hear
though straining, gaining a place in life
it's proving so hard to erase you
to forget the certain feel
from my heart..........
