Characters from my book, Song of the Summer King: www.jessowen.com
Inspired by the tear-jerking song, "For the Man I Loved," by Karliene, from her brand new album Dreams of Fire. Check out her website here: www.karliene.com. Song here and a must listen: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMTIoU…
I try to remember him
the way he used to be
the man whose name I’ve carved on my heart
I was born inside the warmth of him
born inside a dream
though I never dream’t we’d find ourselves apart
Now I’ve cried all my tears
drowned in these years
died for the longing of you
For the burning within
for your kiss on my skin
for your heart
for the man I loved
I try to remember him
the way he used to love
the man who gave me everything
the rain and the sun
we danced around the chasm
on the edge we made love
though I never feared how far we might fall
Now I’ve cried all my tears
drowned in these years
died for the longing of you
For the burning within
for your kiss on my skin
for your heart
for the man I loved
I’m always yours
I’m always yours
I’m always yours...
Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die.
