Yesterday
It never seems to end
as you lose another friend
when death comes grimly reaping
and he leaves the mourners weeping
How terrible the day
when someone fades away
and they join with those at last
who populate your past
So once again you start
with a broken mind and heart
as one more soul along the way
stays behind with yesterday
