PEOPLE ASK ME HOW I'M DOING AND I SAY THAT I'M OK.
> THE FACT IS THAT I'M NOT...MY PAIN WORSENS EVERY DAY!
> I WONDER WHAT IF I HAD SAID,OR OF ALL THAT COULD'VE BEEN DONE.
> IF I HAD ONLY KNOWN YOU'D BE GONE,MY PRECIOUS,LOVING SON.
> SOME CAN'T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND AND THINK I SHOULD GO ON.
> BUT HOW CAN I DO SUCH A THING WHEN A PART OF ME IS GONE.
> THEY SAY THAT IT GETS EASIER AND YOUR BURDEN IS LESS TO BARE.
> I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE THAT'S TRUE WHEN ALL YOU LOVED'S NO LONGER
THERE.
> I PRAY THAT GOD WILL EASE MY MIND AND SHOW ME HOW TO JUST GO ON.
> AND GIVE ME BACK THE HEART HE TOOK THE DAY HE CALLED YOU HOME.
> ALTHOUGH MY HEART IS BROKEN AND MY TEARS OVERFLOW,
> I TRY TO HIDE THE SADNESS SO NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW.
> PRETENDING'S JUST NOT EASY WHEN YOU KNOW NOT HOW TO
> SEE,THE REASON YOU ARE HURTING ...WHY'S THIS HAPPENING TO ME?
> I'LL NEVER SEE YOU GO TO SCHOOL OR HAVE CHILDREN OF YOUR OWN.
> THE LINK THAT MADE MY LIFE COMPLETE IS NOW FOREVER GONE.
> I'LL TRY TO BE MUCH STRONGER AND KNOW THAT YOU LIVE ON.
> ALTHOUGH I KNOW YOU'RE THERE WITH GOD, I FEEL SO ALL ALONE.
> FROM THIS DAY FORWARD I HAVE TO SEE THAT YOU REALLY NEVER DIED.FOR
AS LONG AS YOU LIVE INSIDE MY HEART YOUR MEMORY'S STILL
ALIVE!!!!!!
