It's been years since you've bothered to visit me
Where have you even been
Your strength and wisdom is what guided me
The heart you had within
For years, I've lived in blindness
Awaiting some sort of sound
I wish I had your selfless kindness
The love you shared around
I've tried
To reflect the light you had inside
I've tried
To be the friend you were in my life
I've tried
I'm so weakened and frail
I've tried
But I've continued to fail
I'm not so fine
I'm not so okay
I miss you so much here today
But I will be fine
I will be okay
I'll continue forward through the flames
This empty feeling is what tortures me
It makes me bitter and weak
I know you're up there watching me
But its so bittersweet
It was so hard to survive
Without your hand to hold
All my cries and sleepless nights
I always feel so cold
I've tried
To carry lanterns through the night
I've tried
To be strong and put up a fight
I've tried
To hold you close inside my heart
I've tried
And now I'll guide them through the dark
So much pain I had to take
So much rage I had to keep
In Memory
I will never forget your name
You left a wound in me
And though it hurts to see you leave this place
In my heart is where you'll stay
I will never forget their names
They are here with us
And though it hurt to see them leave this place
In our heart is where they'll stay
We will be fine
We will be okay
We will be fine
We will be okay
