forever

you've been out running
with the dogs of war
leaving scents
leaving your small sadness
how can i catch you
now?

your were the brother
that saved my fall
you were the friend
that never wavered
and i will follow you
forever

you were the calm
watched through the night
gave guard against
hard madness
at the door
this i can cherish
forever

i love the sunset
you love the dawn
i spent my days
hiding with confusion
but you've a strength
and will live
forever

now you've gone running
with the dogs of war
will never sit
between my walls
among my silences
how many hours
forever?
