Pale and drawn like a winter sky He sits and stares into an unlit fire Pages turned, not one line read But scenes replay inside his head Once her day was warm routine She sowed the seed a home so clean She closed her eye, moments in the Sunday Now she blames herself, shame for everyone Don't look back - there's too much pain When you weigh the loss before the gain Don't swim out on the torn dark sea To drown in doubt and self pity Don't look back Stores away and neatly filed Mother first then only child Flowers fresh, stones of white Sunshine days turned starless night Don't look back - there's too much pain When you weigh the loss before the gain Don't swim out on the torn dark sea To drown in doubt and self pity Don't look back
