So Lost Without You

I want to touch you
I want you to see
I miss you so much
I want you with me

My life is so empty
My heart feels so cold
I wish you were still with me
I want you to hold

Why you were taken
I ask each and every day
But no one will answer
Because I forgot how to pray

I hope you are happy
I hope you are safe
I wish I could hear you
And regain my faith

Come to me Son 
And just whisper my name
Tell me you are happy
And I will be the same

My life at this moment
Is empty and dark
The light that once shone
Has gone out in my heart

That's all for now
I have to believe
Eternity with you in heaven
I hope I will achieve

My son died in a car accident on a rainy Sept. day in 2017. Writing I have found is the only thing that shows any signs of healing in my heart. Thank you for reading.

You will get there Steve, but not on your own time table. "eternity with you in heaven I hope to achieve."
