Death

I’ll never see your face again Or hear your laughter As days go by I remember you still, as you were When you were still here With swollen tears And a heart that aches I’ll never again feel your embrace Even though your spirit is here It’s just not the same As hearing your voice And seeing you near No more tomorrows will hold you Only yesterday remains Yet the sun still sets and the stars burn bright The morning becomes day The day becomes night But you are not here And the sorrow and pain That death can claim Bring heavy hands It’s just not the same And I wish that you were still here With footsteps light And laughter long
