Ssiter Dear

[Daisuke Fayne]

I look into the river, wishing that everything has just been a dream,
As I long for you back, wanting to just see you once more.
Yet, as I stare at my own reflection, I see that it’s the truth,
You are never coming back, you never were.

A teardrop falls, creating ripples in the water,
As I continue to wish, not wanting to face everything.
Just like years before, when I cried for you,
I knew that it was all a lie, all for naught.

That one final day, that I had seen you,
It was the last day I truly smiled.
Because it was you who made it true,
And you who saved my soul then.

Yet now, I can see the falsehoods in my life,
See them through the clear blue waters below me.
They show me what was not going to happen,
What was never meant to be.

It is true, it will never come to be,
You will never be here, holding me once more.
Even though I wish it so,
I can never feel your hair against my cheek again.

Sister dear, please come back,
I plead my soul on the water’s edge.
Sister dear, don’t forget me,
For I want to feel you once more.

I close my eyes, as a few more tears fall,
Echoing the water, as it transcends the past.
I hear your voice once more,
Knowing it is just a memory of long ago.

Brother dear, don’t worry,
I will always be here for you.
Brother dear, just smile,
For I will stay by your side.

The truth of it all, is that I lost her long ago,
Lost her when she walked out that door.
I never would have her back,
Back to hold me once more.

My last tear drops into the water,
As I crash into the river.
Letting my body just be one with my tears,
I give myself to the icy cold waters, that brought me back.
