Songs of Yesterday
Yesterday we ran and jumped
Across the bumps and hills
As we would be angels
Free of worries
Free of obstacles.
Yesterday we sat around
In circles, talking
About the futures
About tomorrows
That await us all
Ahead and underneath
The deep blue Starry Skies.
Tomorrow after yesterday
Many of us have parted ways
In all directions chosen
In the times when
We all were still Angels.
Tomorrow before today
Some of us that parted
On our ways have parted
From tomorrows after today.
Deep sorrow I wish to you
Dear angels, berried on that day
You chose to part again
Towards your inner angel.
On my left shoulder it sits now
That is today and it is the day
After tomorrow that will be
Still talking, whispering me sorrows
And echoes from your souls.
I can hear you crying
Howling from below on nights as those
When millions of brilliant stars
Appear above me
Calling down your names.
Stay close and warm on paths that cross
Between the light and shadows
Of our fallen angels.
