Too Young To Go

God we don’t know the answers
Our questions spin around like dancers
The loss of a loved one
That hurt can never be undone

Still our questions of why
Our hearts in our throats and we cry
Is it wrong to plead
While our hearts bleed

Please not now, give more time
They are still in their prime
Family still in need
Their time not yet exceed

Give them one more breath
Keep them away from death
A little more life bestow
They far too young to go
