Air

Unspoken witness never reached the eyes of the day
Yet the moon was the one to hear
How she prayed forgiveness
For each shattered little word she made to weep

Why these woods still echo?
How the whispering tangles on
When the moon was the only one here
How I pray to lose my burden
In this place where I loved you dead

And you are the air
The cold beneath this whispering wind
Carried within
You are the air
The warmth in sorrow I took in
When I could feel the end
The air
The air I breathe was a gift from you
