Life Goes Its Way

Life goes its way, without me

Friends move on, like fading polaroids

Drifting apart, like grains of sand in the sea

No longer close, no longer in hand


Family fades to black, like a dying ember

Love ones lost, like a forgotten melody

Broken relationships, like a shattered mirror

Pain and sorrow, forever will last


Life goes its way, without a care

Leaving me behind, with only tears to share

I'm left to pick up the pieces of my heart

Wishing we could start, a brand new start


But life goes its way, and I'm left to grieve

Longing for what's lost, what could never be retrieved

The ache within, a constant reminder

Of love and friendship, that's no longer in sight.
