Don'T Blink

Just a blink and everything changed
Day and after day clinging to hope
Holding on tight, refusing to let go
A soul fading, wanting to go home
One last breath and you fly away
The pain is gone but here I stay
A new day always comes
My heart still breaks
No love to share
No smile to give
Faith is gone
Life is done
All over
