The Loss

The Loss


You came to me
Two years ago
And we became instant friends

You were there everyday
Being near you -
I felt safe

But now I can only ask why

Just that morn' it was raining
Naturally
You were by my side
We battled the storm
Like times before
and of course won

t'was anger that
Distracted that day
I left you at the bench
and walked away

Time came, too late
I frantically sought
But you were gone

With a heart of fear
I missed my dear
I asked, questioned
Nothing

I slowly trod, with
Heavy steps
The meandering path
We'd always taken back

Everyone looked like you
I hoped, I'd stared
But alas
None were you

Sweet love I never
Thought I'd missed -
Come back to me please

I didn't think I'd lose you
That thought never
Crossed my mind
Because you were mine

But now I am all alone
No other'll fill
That place you took

Maybe, who knows
One day I'll see you
One face, one place
In the crowd

Would I still claim you then?

Who knows, who knows -
(When)
I'll have you in my arms again...

My dear sweet brolly.
