Word Prompts
I am laying awake pondering the agony of it all
I am hurting inside my heart, sweetheart
I long for the times we used to sit and talk
I still remember your touch, it would cause me to shiver
I loved you and I still love you
I am feeling so lost inside now that you are gone
I came across the songs you wrote inside a box
I am holding them close to my heart
I gaze up at the night sky and play your guitar
I play and sing the songs that you wrote, it helps
Some of the songs are tender and some make me cry
On many nights I play until it gets cold
There is a part of me that hopes you can still hear me
How can there be a life without you by my side?
I am not afraid of death because I have already died
This is worse than death because in death, the pain of life ends
