The Stillness of Dawn


Amidst the stillness of dawn
I catch a drop of dew
And recall a long lost voice
Telling me things will be just fine

Within the stillness of dawn
I see the brightness of a faded smile
I marvel on an extenuating sigh of memories
And know that everything'll be okay

For those who died
Will forever stay amongst us
Those who lost their lives
Will never be left behind

Like a leaf falling from a tree
Withered and faded from our thoughts
They return in full glory when the purest of warmth unfolds
They become part of the cycle
And will never be forgotten
Once you've found the stillness of dawn
Somewhere hidden within your heart


'The Stillness of Dawn' JoSav 2002

What's it about? Gone. Ashes to ashes and dust to dust. I don't remember you. And no one will remember me.
