Big White Cloud

A Boy With Roses

may it be that you rest in peace                                                                                            

and do not be afraid                                                                            

may it be that you feel no pain, that you'll love again                                                                        

come back to me in dreams 

 

I will always remember your face, that effervescent smile                                    

slipping away with the glow in your eyes                                                                      

today I looked at the pale blue sky and thought of you

 

wrapped in the static of the flowers                                                                      

surrounding my heart

 

I'm sorry for the things I never done                                                                                          

I'm sorry for taking you for granted                                                                                            

and now the sorrow I feel, the tears I shed                                                                  

leave me wistful and ambivalent  

 

may it be that we meet again                                                                                

may it be that the stars shine for you.
