In memory...

Remembering Grief

I won't say who, but let's just say this person (who has died) taught me one of the most important life lesson (see previous post) that I had to learn too early. So I am posting a photo (above) I took in a graveyard and a song that came on Pandora and made me just think of that time and that lesson.
Dreamer Dies ~ Autovein
"I know this sounds absurd,
but this is what I heard
I know you must be lonely
Underneath, you're insecure
but you can rest assured
I know you're not the only one
It's always such a shame
To slander your own name
In a struggle to survive
You're everyone's best friend
You're abandoned in the end
And you never felt alive
It's hard to climb a waterfall
I never realized
That there's a part inside us all
That tumbles from the sky
When we watch a dreamer die
Do you remember when
All of this began,
And you never turned around?
It must be hard to find again
The place where you had been
When you finally hit the ground
And everyone believes
And no one ever sees
Your struggle to survive
And no one understands
Who's there to hold your hand
When you fight to stay alive
It's hard to climb a waterfall
I never realized
That there's a part inside us all
That tumbles from the sky
When we watch a dreamer die
And I don't ever want to
Well, I don't ever want to
I don't ever want to die like you"
