We are near

in the silence I can hear you
We are forever I told you so
Whenever we are apart we are near
Now I am gone yet our bond is strong
My heart is the dust of blood and tears
Which is fine since my soul does not burn
For anything except for you
In the silence you live on in memory
Connections made are not lost
They are stained on the glass of history
And from this glass my spirit drinks deeply
Of undying love mixed with sweet eternity
