Sorrow and Pain

Our heart and soul has left us His spirit has been freed He’s up above in heaven Watching as we need For our pain to diminish For our tears to end For our emptiness to disappear From the loss of our best friend The house is full of silence This reminds us that he’s gone My heart it was broken The moment he moved on I told him that I loved him I looked into his eyes I told him how I’d miss him But, we had to say our goodbyes I try to tell myself I did right By having him pass on However, now my heart is aching I wish he wasn’t gone I want to hug and kiss him Go with him for a walk Have him sit and listen As I sit and talk To me he was my child Whom I cherished with all my heart Now, he isn’t with us This is tearing me apart He was slowly dying It killed me to see him this way I prayed for God to save him I wished for him to stay How could I let him suffer? When he means the world to me I hope I did the right thing When I set him free Skrapper please forgive me For the things I never did Know I always loved you As if, you were my kid The decision was a hard one I tried to think about what was best I never wanted to lose you To have you laid to rest You didn’t wish to leave us You’d never want to go You loved us unconditionally These things I do know Nevertheless, do you know I’m sorry? For all the things I should have done I should have loved you better You should have been number one I miss your constant affection How you followed me around We were one together By our love we are bound You made me feel happiness You took away my pain You filled a void inside me You made me feel sane I could never thank you enough For all you’ve done for me You took me from my darkness Giving me light so, I could see You comforted me in hard times Played with me through the good Stayed by my side no matter what You did for me what you could Now, you’re not here with me I am empty inside My heart it was shattered The day that you died
