"Last Embrace" is the musical project consisting of the spoken word poetry of Shane Beck, and Synth Replicants.
"She Was My Child"
I recall watching the classic series over & over as we laughed & smiled
Those silly faces we made as we had pillow fights & the comfort we shared
In the last 2 weeks before you passed on, I heard you laugh & it hurt so bad
Because I never wanted to let go, am crying now, but wanted to let you know
Telling me it is ok to move on & find love, but I remain haunted inside
She was my child.....
And in the end, you called me a raging protective lion, gave you all you asked for
The Bear who held you in his fierce embrace & silently cried, I am so sorry.....
She was my child....
I was her best friend, her mother and father & the one who released her on the day
Never tried to replace you, I only wanted to let you know, you were the one.......
You drew pictures of smiling horses and pretty round hedgies, (May Sun)
There is never night where I don't speak to you, everyone, they call me strong
But you were the light that faded into the sun, in my heart you forever belong
And as I walk to the cliffs to visit you, hear my words & understand this song....
