No Words

No Words Where did you go? We searched all night. I cannot feel you, Are you alright? Maybe with neighbors? Hiding in leaves? Went to your friends, I half to believe. As time had passed, My heart did sink, No words from you What should I think? The fateful day We got the call, You weren’t with friends, Or the neighbors at all. You were found So far away Did you go with Someone that day? We brought you back To your home town, We swore to you We’d bring them down. You looked so pale Your eyes were closed, It seemed to look Like you just dozed. The tears did come With so much grief, How could this be? Questioning all belief To lose a spouse Would hurt so much To lose the parents They are your crutch. To lose a child What does one say There are no words To speak, or pray. My baby child I am so lost, Without you here Is the ultimate cost.
