A Song For You


For Jennie Elliot, who left us 17 January 2014, but will live on in my heart forever. RIP brother.

It ain’t a life without your smile

It ain’t a moment to cherish and rise.

Your voice showing me the long miles

Ahead, it ain’t a place in time.


Dreams and visions of laughter, of song, of smoke.

Vanish slowly into that time.

That time which is the future, which won’t stop.

That time which is the past, where you stopped.


Guilt feeds into my cheer

Asking, why do you lie?

Nights go by with your eyes shining

Starlike, timeless, into my unstill mind.


A song for you won’t make things right.

A song for you won’t stop the time.

A song for you won’t make me smile.

It’ll only freeze this moment, in time.
