Lyric

On the side of the road now

The ghost of warmth lingers –

No more sound

In a moment of pain

Time cannot warn –

Love freezes

The road does not choose

It only passes – and crushes

That

That which does not avoid

What is wisdom?

Knowing the moment and letting go –

Or holding on?

The cat, that master

Never owned –

And yet beloved

The car just keeps going

It does not return to mourn –

The person remains

I walk into the night

I carry him in my mind –

Memory lingers

Death does not take

It shows what was –

Everything disappears

If suffering is

A teacher for the soul –

I have learned

The soil becomes quiet

But the shape of the paw remains

On the surface of the heart
