Loss II

It happened so long ago,

the memories aren't so clear for me to see.

You were everything, everything to me. 

I trust you would always be there, yet it weren't to be.

Alone in this would, my life is so incomplete.

 

Don't go away from me,

I beg you to stay,

Don't go away from me,

It gets harder every day.

 

Shock set in so readily, the way you went, was a mystery.

Finding out from no-one, the print  press paper did it for me.

Saying goodbye was incomplete, no flowers were thrown 

for you to see.

How would I get through this, oh lord please, help me to cope.

I'm dying inside, I need to go.

 

Don't go away from me,

I beg you to stay,

don't go away from me, 

It gets harder every day.

 

Its been a while now since you left us this way, the numbness

has really set in. I think I'm starting to decay, rotting within.

Detached, and cold, I know so well.

Anything between this is crazy as hell.

 

Don't go away from me

I beg you to stay

Don't go away from me

It gets harder every day.

 

Struggling to cope with life's journey, everything without you 

is an impossbility. 

As try as I might to move on without you, dark and empty 

are my feelings, following through.

 

Don't go away from me

I beg you to stay

Don't go away from me

It gets harder everyday.

 

Here I am towards the end of my path.

Loveless and hopeless, during this crazy task.

Hoping to cut short my destiny, had enough of everything, 

I'm sure you'll agree.

 

I give no-one the right to use this material for their own use, 

or financial gain without my permission.
