Loss

A minute my mind, parts two and parts three, the things that I’m hiding, the things you won’t see, my pain and my tears, my given up grief, the friends that I’ve lost, tree minus the leaf, the naked the bare, the nothing up front, My smiles and my laughter, magnificent stunts, it’s all an illusion, it’s all for show, these feelings hurt me, I wish they would just go, cds and whiskey are two of the best, memories strong, without the mess, of losing two friends, taken too soon, still live in my heart, forever a room, it’s hard to celebrate, two life’s that were cut short, wish they were still here, now that’s a thought, I’m glad for the time, that we could be friends, I sit here and smile, the good thoughts defend, the if’s and the whys, the what’s and the pain, the anger the hate, the guilt and the blame, one thing I know, and always it’s true, there isn’t a day, I don’t think about you.
