There will always be
by Anna

There will always be a place in my heart
that belongs to you
right now it feels empty and cold cause
I know that you are gone
But I will fill it with memories and dreams
of you

Maybe one day the sun will dry my
tear streaked face
and a gentle summer breeze will ease the pain
but right now I’m helplessly lost and I wonder,
did I dream all my dreams in vain?

You were the rainbow that I kept chasing
through all these years,
my friends don’t understand
me when I tell them that I cry
my self to sleep thinking of you

it’s strange that you had such a strong
effect on me
when you were so far away
and never knew that I existed at all
you helped me ,through the darkest
nights of my life
I know it sound strange but I know it
to be true

so it’s with sadness that I say goodbye
to someone I hoped that I would one
day know
I hope that you will read this
so you can know my wish for you

I pray that you are guarded by
angels both day and night
that they spread their wings around you
and protect you with all heavens might
I pray that when you went from this place
to where you are now
that the darkness from this world left you
and that God filled your heart with light
I pray that your broken spirit is whole again,
that you have found peace,
that all your tears have dried

STOP ALL THE CLOCKS
by W.H. Auden

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone.
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.
Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He is Dead,
Put crépe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.
He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song,
I thought that love would last forever - I was wrong. The stars are not wanted now, put out every one,
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun,
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood.
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

Feel Like Going Home
by the Walkabouts

Lord, I feel like going home
Lord, I feel like going home
I’ve tried and I fell and I’m tired and weary
I’ve tried and I fell and I’m tired and weary
Everything I’ve done is wrong
Everything I’ve done is wrong
And I feel like going home
And I feel like going home

Lord, I tried to see you through
Lord, I tried to see you through
But it was too much for me
But it was too much for me
Now I’m coming home to you
Now I’m coming home to you
Yeah, I feel like going home
Yeah, I feel like going home

Clouded skies are closing in
Clouded skies are closing in
And not a friend around to help me
And not a friend around to help me
Of all the places I’ve been
Of all the places I’ve been
Lord, I feel like going home
Lord, I feel like going home

Lord, I feel like going home
Lord, I feel like going home
I’ve tried and I fell and I’m tired and weary
I’ve tried and I fell and I’m tired and weary
Everything I’ve done is wrong
Everything I’ve done is wrong
Lord, I feel like going home
Lord, I feel like going home

Lord, I tried to see you through
Lord, I tried to see you through
But it was too much for me
But it was too much for me
Now I’m coming home to you
Now I’m coming home to you
Yes, I feel like going home
Yes, I feel like going home

Lord, I feel like going home
Lord, I feel like going home
I’ve tried and I fell and I’m tired and weary
I’ve tried and I fell and I’m tired and weary
Everything I’ve done is wrong
Everything I’ve done is wrong
Lord, I feel like going home
Lord, I feel like going home

Nobody is like you
by Ulrich Schaffer

Nobody has your fingermarks.
Nobody has your voice.
Nobody says "I love you" the way you do.
Nobody believes like you.
Nobody thinks of dying like you do.
Nobody has your history.
Nobody feels the same sadness,
the same happiness as you.
Nobody is like you.
Nobody in your country, on your continent,
On the third planet of this solar system,
In the galaxy, which we call the Milky Way.
Nobody.
Because you are unique.
