It's An Illusion You Are Gone

As I pass through this life my friends continue to die Why god brought you home to him I can not comprehend why? For me your death has been trying I do not wish to ever let you go The news that you've passed on brought with it A pain that no one should know When I walked into the hospital There was so much that I wanted to say My heart crumbled into pieces To have to see you lie there that way I could not stop the tears from falling For you there was nothing I could do So, I kissed you on the forehead Then spoke to you the words " I love you!" One of my best friends had to leave me It is imperative for me to mourn With hopes to someday understand The reason why my heart's been torn Memories keep you alive inside me My friend through me you will live on I can feel you in my heart and soul Making it a fallacy you're gone.
