Someone Said Your Name Today

For Sarah I have so many questions As to why you've gone away Maybe I'm not meant to know Perhaps you couldn't say I'll never see your smile again Or see your eyes of brown Someone said your name today And the tears came pouring down I won't pretend to know the pain You must have felt inside I only wish I'd been there To hold you while you cried I'll miss your jokes; your pranks How your laughter sounds Someone said your name today And the tears came pouring down My heart will always wonder Why you didn't say good-bye I wasn't ready to let you go To spread your wings and fly Although I'll see you in Heaven My sorrow still abounds Someone said your name today And the tears came pouring down If only I had one more day To spend with you my friend I'd share how much you mean to me A blessing you have been I know you're safe with Him now The Keeper of the Crown But someone said your name today And the tears came pouring down October 2015 Please, before you take your life, make one call to the National Suicide Prevention Hotline - 988, just three numbers now. There is help for you.

I had accidentally put the wrong title on this poem. So, I had to go back and correct some mistakes.
