The Last Memory of Me

Leaves were turning as we met
I saw them in your eyes reflected
Like lost guiding lights, the night followed fast
Our last bright moments trapped in my mind's amber glass
Crawling against this darkness you lie beneath
You're hidden, I must seek
Grandmothers tell of a cure
For others died like this

All I had is now gone or lost
Love me, White Eyes
Remember me when I'll leave
Even when the sunlight will fall so bright
Kiss me goodnight
But dream for me
If I die

I know you
Like the feathered curve
Of the little bird's wing I heard
Your voice on the breeze, last night
Despite your empty silence
Breath tight inside your chest
No rest
You sleep too soundly
Dark places call to me
The Rift sings of your salvation
And so, I must go for your cure
And so, you must know
If you awake without my hands
These recordings I leave
Like notches in trees
Follow them, find me
Put my heart
At ease
