Nights

I stay awake at night
I hear your voice
I see your face
And my mind can't keep you out
My heart insists on
Not letting you go

When I manage
To shut my eyes,
I wake up with tears
I keep crying

Loving you was always painful
It still is
You brought joy
You brought tears
And now you bring pain
Like a dove carrying death
On its wings

I shut my eyes for
The nth time
Tonight
And wish I won't
Remember
