Garden Of Stones

Snow has covered her grave

And flowers have withered away

Cold wind cries in the trees

Frozen tears mark my grief

The flickering, weak candlelight

Shatters the dead of the night

I bury my face in my hands

I try to speak but I can't

With a breeze arrives a sparrow

Lands on her gravestone

I raise my head and realize

I am no longer alone

Haven of shadows in the garden of stones

Cold wind blows out the flame

And darkness surrounds me again

The sparrow starts silently singing

A song only she and I know

I shed a tear on her grave

And silently whisper her name

As cold wind still shakes the trees

I know she now rests in peace

With a breeze leaves the sparrow

Flies into the unknown

I bow my head and realize

I want to follow
