Death of a Real One

When a real one dies...
The world is full of cries..... 
Life keeps going,  time flies by.

It hits a little differently...
To some it's a mystery.... 
Sadness for me but joy for you.

You're finally getting your wings, for all you've been through. 
But what do I do? About missing  you? 
You looking at me but I wanting to see you? 

"Time heals all pain" yeah right, that's a lie!
"God makes no mistakes", but I'm asking lord why?! 

When you left I promise you, a piece of me died.
Then, there's the guilt because I know you wouldn't want me down. So I try to uplift myself, pretend you're still around. 
  
So this is why when a real one dies,  you'll see the world cry with large tears in people's eyes .
