For Tammy
It never fully fades
Time moves on in a slow march
And not a moment goes by when I do not miss you
You will always have a piece of my soul little one
A love so close it hurts to breathe life back in
It is painful to move past this point
Back into the light of what I know to be real
Into life and it's many commitments
But who out there can fathom so great a cut?
And still life walks past me
Sometimes I do not fully feel alive, nor am I dead
This purgatory of mortality never lets me forget you
Pain never fully fades in this way
