--This came out of a dream I had last night, typically I don't dream or I just don't remember them. I haven't thought of this girl for years, I haven't seen her or her daughter even longer than that. I'm not sure why I had the dream...but I did like seeing her face again.

---------------------------

This one is still fresh in my head,
Another reminder of what I've lost,
I cannot begin all over again,
This loss will never come back.
And I'm left with the less of all this,
I drank myself away for you, for you,
And there you are again, waiting for me to give in.

I miss you, I have no other words to say on the issue,
You were my one, you were my one.
I lost you to the devil drug, drowned in a satan town,
I will never forget, I can't, not again.

Now I'm left wondering how your little girl is handling-
The stress of it all I'm sure is overwhelming,
Mum's not home again, she is out every night,
That story has to get old after all the cold-lonely-times.
And here I am, left with a dream that didn't explain anything,
Wondering why it came and went like you did,
I wonder if you still have the picture, took me two days to do.

I miss you, I have no other words to say on the issue,
You were my one, you were my one.
I lost you to the devil drug, drowned in a satan town,
I will never forget, I can't, not again.

And here I am, alone with the lingering memories of yesteryear,
Where are you? I hope the Little Princess is okay,
I still have her birthday tatted on my arm, permanent,
I hope you are fairing well too, Little Princess needs you.
The only person I would kill for, please take care of her...

strange how the holidays effect us in different ways, hopefully your words reach her aura and all is well....

nice, the holidays do seem to have an effect of thinking of those gone by....but truly never forgotten.

Thanks.

melancholy moods this time of year..indeed

Transient emotion. Very powerful, and the personal nature of it is felt wholly. A great and terrifically honest write.

Cheers everyone.

Wow hun this was awesome. I'm hearing it as song, probably not the type you'd imagine but it fits well. You're like a mad lyricist waking to an epiphany.
