Winter winds were whispering through the air
Snowflakes of time gently settled everywhere
In that cold, your warm smile shined so bright
A springtime bloom within my heart’s frostbite
Your fingertips, etched with years gone by
Held my shoulders softly, as if to defy
The chill of winter melted in that embrace
And flowers bloomed in my heart’s quiet space
Your arms, a spring upon the winter’s snow
A gentle sunbeam in my world’s soft glow
I’ve walked a quarter of the life you gave
Through seasons ahead, with songs to brave
Can I pass on the love I’ve known
And let it bloom where seeds are sown
Like warmth of spring at winter’s end
Can I share the love you used to send
Petals drifting on the breeze
Will my quarter bloom with ease
I’ve only lived a quarter, just a quarter
A quarter of your genes flows in my veins
Ancient whispers bound in my DNA chains
Your gaze, your laughter, inside me grow
A timeless trace of you I’ll always know
The river of your blood, a steady stream
Carrying pieces of your endless dream
Your story breathes within my core
In every breath, your legacy restores
Your presence quietly takes root inside
A hidden love that I cannot hide
I’ve walked a quarter of the life you gave
Through seasons ahead, with songs to brave
Can I pass on the love I’ve known
And let it bloom where seeds are sown
Like warmth of spring at winter’s end
Can I share the love you used to send
Petals drifting on the breeze
Will my quarter bloom with ease
I’ve only lived a quarter, just a quarter
Your pieces scattered, lighting up my soul
Stardust of your DNA, making me whole
Your voice, your touch, echoes deep within
Another springtime waiting to begin
I’ve walked a quarter of the life you gave
Through seasons ahead, with songs to brave
Can I pass on the love I’ve known
And let it bloom where seeds are sown
Like warmth of spring at winter’s end
Can I share the love you used to send
Petals drifting on the breeze
Will my quarter bloom with ease
I’ve only lived a quarter, just a quarter
