In the New

She smiled and said she's coming
 she never made it here.
She smiled and said she loves me, 
 now I cry this tear.
She brought my dreams to life,
 but she's not allowed to stay, 
She smiled and kissed my forehead
 now all that's gone away.
People tell me she's in a better place,
 but I'm still in this hell.
She smiled and walked away
 Where she went time can only tell.
Some say its the simple things
 But I know that can't be true
She smiled and now I'm crying, 
 And the tears go into the new
