To

to her

i’ve never been this far from you
as where i am today
our love is all i’ve left to hold
as time just slips away
 
i need to be not where i am
no words describe this pain
of being separated from
you on this earthly plane
 
to Him

do you cry for me dear Lord
do you have one tear
and understand the things i do
are borne from just one fear

i’m facing life without my Love
this sentence handed down
no holding hands no hugs a kiss
till i lay in the ground

to them

who truly can condemn a man
that’s serving out his time
remembering all the little things
in corners of his mind

the difficulty is to face
a sober agony
no drugs to kill devouring pain
just drop upon one knee
