50 Long Years Without You

by Dark Angel - Pisces

The cloudy sky changed from blue to gray
The wind from soft, to a harsh, fast pace
The rain from drizzling, to hard, cold beats
All within 50 long years without you.

My hair from brown, to soft, snow white
My eyes from deep blue, to light, ocean bright
My complexion from perfection to wrinkles by the millions
All within 50 long years without you.

My voice from soft and full of life to withered and old
My hands from warm and smooth to cold and rough
My heart from fast and wild to slow and faint
All within 50 long years without you.

I've finally reached my final destination
Which was to come to you, my heart
For 50 long years I've had to live without your love
And for 50 long years, I've longed to be with you.

I've laid down here with you, in the cold winters snow
To tell you how much I've missed you
And I'm waiting for the day when my soul, too, will rest
Then, and only then, shall I no longer have to spend another year without you.
