Oh, they say people come

This particular diamond was extra special

And though you might be gone

And the world may not know
Recognition that the external world may not fully understand the bond.
Still I see you, celestial
A metaphorical connection, describing the absent person as celestial and still perceptible.
Like a lion you ran

A goddess you rolled

Like an eagle you circle
Symbolizing freedom and majesty by likening the person to an eagle in flight.
In perfect purple
Describing the person's essence with the image of "perfect purple," possibly signifying beauty and completeness.
So how come things move on?
Raising questions about the progression of time and the continuation of life.
How come cars don't slow?
Observing the apparent indifference of the world to personal struggles and losses.
When it feels like the end of my world

There's a light that you give me

There's a feeling you give me, an everglow

Like brothers in blood
Drawing parallels between the depth of connection and familial bonds.
Sisters who ride
Emphasizing the loyalty and shared experiences between friends.
And we swore on that night
Recalling a commitment to friendship lasting until death.
We'd be friends 'til we die

But the changing of winds
Using natural elements to symbolize the inevitable changes in life.
And the way waters flow

Life is short as the falling of snow
