October 25th
And on this night with you I wanted to stay.
Once upon a cool October day.
The sky lost its color and had a gloomy color grey.
We drove up the mountain, the long winding highway.
I take a step outside and heard the music of a jay.
The leaves in the trees started to sway.
And I ask myself why today?
My friend you were there beside me and whispered if I was ok.
We sat upon the rocks with the skyline on display.
The sky glimmered like a heavenly sunray.
As if it were a beautiful painting or a lovely bouquet.
The city lights that flicker look like golden ships at bay.
And on this night with you I wanted to stay.
I will forever remember this, so I close my eyes and pray.
And it was on this peaceful Sunday, the day you went away.
