you were

[spally]

i used to have a friend, then one day he left me
__________________________________

you were my heart and soul
you were my shining knight
you never failed to hold me tight
every time i fell
you were my love

you were my legs
you were my sight
you never failed to stand me tall
you were my other half

you used to dry my tears
you used to make my laugh
you never made me shead a tear
you were my friend

now your gone, now i cry
every time i close my eyes
all i see is how things used to be
before you turned your back on me

Very nice, though it's simple it's powerful... or maybe it's powerful because it's simple.

[amuse]

the images, the beauty, the joy - and now the loss - yes, it all works together and leaves one feeling bereft for, with you.

very evocative...
