for endless pain upon my chest upon my bed i do not rest
i twist and turn as does my soul with rage uncaged unseen to all
i hide my pain from most myself for i can’t bare the consequence
of actions that have not been done of which i know can’t be undone
upon your picture rest my eyes with dried up tears my sorrow lies
more poison willfully i consume a slowing death i now assume
regretfully with every drag of loosing days i can’t get back
with building pressure pushing down i fear i cannot hold my ground
i try i do for what its worth for those who need me on this earth
for worthless i can become with inner strength i must be one
i tell you this to get it out and in the end i have no doubt
that i will rise above the storm and strength of blow I must hold strong
i’ve never ever failed you before and as you now rest i must do more
for you have taught me what is strength your pride in me i will not contend
with a heart of steal and face filled smile with all you’ve lived a head held high
for you my love i hold my course with all you’ve done i hold your course
i do it all without regret a selfless being i must become and learn from you my loving one
for all your days were lived for us and never done with a single fuss
in silence you have done it all outspoken yes to hold the fort
you held your ground and you were strong when you were week you made us strong
i tell you this of which you know i hold your ground i’ll watch them grow
of all the promises of all you wish as a part of me i tell you this
rest dear sister wherever you may be
for all is safe now here with me
