White Sparrows (song prompt)

Use the below lyrics to inspire a new poem. It's better if you listen to the song but you can just read them if you want, i can't do anything about it . I would really like my favorites to enter if they can. I will except pre-writes but if they don't fit the criteria well enough then i will delete it.

Rules:
DO NOT SCREAM AT ME THROUGH YOUR TEXT!!!
Do NoT mOlEsT yOuR kEyBoArD~!
check your spelling please.

Alright...GO!! ^^

BTW!! if you are a straight girl or a gay guy you can write about your bf or husband or whatever. i am not sexist or anything. so anything goes with that.


Today I walked down our old street
Past the diner where we'd meet
Now I dine alone in our old seats
The cold wind blows right through my bones
And I feel like I'm getting old
But I wish I was getting old with you
I held your hand when we took shelter from the rain
She laughed as we picked out our children's names

White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray

Her clothes hang in the closet still
The phone sits on the windowsill
And every time it rings it gives me chills
My heart just stopped when I was told
Doctor, doctor, on the phone
Said my love was never coming home
I hold your casket gently walking to the grave
Dark clouds eclipse the sun won't shine again

White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray

They gave her one more day
To say the words I couldn't say
I'm crying in pain, crying in pain

And I'm not looking for answers
No, I'm not looking for answers
But dear God, why did you choose her?

White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray

They gave her one more day
To say the words I couldn't say
I'm crying in pain (crying in pain)
Crying in pain
Our love will remain
I'm crying in pain
