Lonely Soul

My soul has been lonely since a tender age Since the fateful day they dug his grave  For years I have tried to fill that  empty space with a happy face  Although I've known no one could ever take his place  My mind... It doesn't remember that place Can't remember a laugh... Or a warm embrace  He'll never walk me down the aisle  Or see my daughter smile  We must cherish our children  And the lives that we living  What happened to him was terrible killing   Over in an instant; No time to blink  Don't do before you think! Not only did he die that day   My soul still sinks
