A Time So Long Ago

Touch my face

Stroke my cheek

Try to remember a time

That once was

A place far from here

A place long ago

I was another

Alone in the dark

Reaching out for another

Looking for someone to help

Someone i could prove use to

My existance was nothing

And meant nothing to no one

On the day of rain i saw you

You were just as alone

In the same dark place

From a place so far from here

A time so long ago

Reaching out for another

Looking to help another

It was when we saw the other

That we knew our existance was something

And meant something to someone

Undeniably sweet was our youth that none could find us

Locked away in the darkness we found light

A light hidden from sight of our eyes before

We went on and aged

None ever knew of us and none never bothered us

Our lives continued as one

But things were tempted to end it all

The day the sun shone you were taken

My love the way you fought to go on

Only to have your wings torn and your heart shattered

You were taken to another place and a far away time to come

I was imprisioned in the time before us.

Left to feel nothing more

Only to go back to what once was.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Not my best. Came up with it in about 5 minutes listening to the first part of a song over and over.
