Vision of Death



The tears I cry
A flowing stream
A quiet thought
A peaceful dream
Like a waterfall
Beneathe a cloud
With singing angels
They're never loud

A place to love and endeavor
A place to behold in your heart forever
With a darkness
Only light could break
If only were it to be seen
A single breath would it take
 
I'm flying high
I'm flying free
My soul is a treasure
Not even Heaven could keep
In my heart, happiness came
Just know that I'm not feeling any more pain
I'll be there
As you start to cry,
As you start to weep
I'm not really gone
I'm only forever asleep
