Please Let Me Know
Tell me son
what happened
on that Friday afternoon
You were taken without warning
You were taken far too soon
No time to say goodbyes
As your spirit calmly rose above
the trauma down below
Tell me son
did someone call your name
and gently take you by the hand
escaping all the pain
Son do you remember
Did you know who came
Did you have an inkling
Did you have a call
Did you know
my darling boy
anything at all
Are you somewhere calm now
with all of those you love
A peaceful place
A joyful place
If only I could see your face
I hope you’re in a better place
Tell me son
please let me know
why you had to go
