Goodbye Dear Friend.
At first everyone knew; I let it show.
You knew how much I hate that.
I just couldn't take it, couldn't go home
And see empty space where you once sat.
I know you would want me to keep on a smile
And to laugh like I did and to sing
So I make it a point every once and a while
Even though it won't dull this sting.
I've fooled them all. They think that I'm well
If you were here, you'd know the truth.
I'm laughing and smiling while feeling like Hell
It's a game that I'm starting to lose.
The house's not the same. It's not like a home
You can feel emptiness in the air
I can't stay here when I feel so alone
And I look for, but your comfort's not there.
I'm sorry I couldn't be stronger for you
As you lay there and kiss tears from my face.
In these last moments I want to comfort you too,
But the end neared at heartbreaking pace.
When my end is near, when life completes
I know in my heart you'll be waiting.
I'll see you again, and when we meet
You're healed, you can walk, no more aching.
I know for us both there will be a day
And though chances say it's years from now,
There's a place in my heart for you to stay
With no limit to time I'll allow
So goodbye my dear friend, with heavy heart
The loss - nearly too much to take.
It grieves us so to have to let you part,
But we will and we have for your sake.
-me
<3 We Miss You
