If I die tonight,
And the willow bent
With grief is silent.
If fallen stars turn,
And walk into the distance.
If fire freezes,
And rain denies.
If I die tonight,
And the door left open,
Calls to the lonesome wind.
If the earth stumbles,
And memory shatters,
Into a thousand shards of glass.
If I die tonight,
And you wake up shivering.
Close your eyes and wrap
Your heart....
In the hymn of a thousand
Fireflies,
And the moan of polished stone
If I die tonight...
You are loved!

Soulful in the best way, each line is bittersweet and lyrically beautiful, however it also leaves me disturbed and sad as if this is a testament to a living wake, but I know its not, what you leave be behind is more then what will be gone, and love is stronger then bones and dust.
