It has been quite awhile
Since then there's no life behind my smile
You left 4 years ago
Still I haven't let go
I remember sitting
and playing a card game about fishing
You left me here
but I didn't tear
My conscience may be the reason
I feel a sense of treason
You didn't want to leave
Still I got mad.
You loved the see so much
Maybe that's why I resent its touch
For it felt like 30 lashes
when I had to help spread your ashes
