When Breath Was a Whisper

In the middle of the beginning of the days of my youth
I found you
In the moments of the hours of my days when time didn’t matter
You took me
In the space between the time when caught breath was a whisper
I came alive

Just a sigh
Just a cry
Just a why
Is all I have of you

Nothing mattered then for death was far and far away
At the end of the end of the days of my life with you
Before the end was all I had and all I had was you till then
Who thinks about the end when the end of you and me will never be?

Just a sigh
Just a cry
Just a why
Is all you left me

In the time before the time when God said let there be light
There was you
In the ages before the time when a man first said I love you
You were there
In all the time that hasn’t been all the time that’s yet to be
You are there

Just a sigh
Just a cry
Just a why
Is all I have left

Empty is a long time between the space of you and the space of me
Empty though is only what the blind can’t see and I see you
In the moments between the space between the times you are there
I feel you filling the space between the moments since I last saw you.

Just a sigh
Just a cry
Just a why
Just a why
Just a why
Just a why
