As I stand here in the rain
I can’t tell
What were tears and what were raindrops
When they fell
And the puddle that is growing
‘round my feet
Will find a hole in my soul
When they meet
Please don’t talk about horizons
And of time
There is too much going on, now
In my mind
As these ashes of her spill upon the wind
Into the ocean of this sadness
And the end
I remember when we met
On that playground
For both of us love at first sight
I know, profound
Well, the years drew us closer
As they passed
And then the vows that we exchanged
Had come at last
But fate had written heartache
All along
Crashing down the world around me
With this song
All my dreams and all my hopes
Were trampled down
Now, in these eyes of waterfalls
Is where I’m found

A sad song, Kevin. That despair probably feels familiar to many of us at one point in our lives. Beautiful poem.
