Those gone before me
Hurts me so deeply
I’m left so far behind
Searching for the voices
I will never find
Pictures fading in the frames
I open my eyes to find
Them gone
My life must go on but I feel like
It has been turned off
To hear them breathe no more
Only in my dreams upon my bed
I lie awake trying to cope with
What God took away
Still I can’t
I reach for something
To take the pain away
The pain I feel each and everyday
Something to fast forward me
Into another day to dream this dream
Another night
Another nightlight
Pictures in black and white
Of what God took away from me
