Tyler


Goodbye-

 

Sadness and sorrow

Glistening and gleaming

Softly and slowly

Tears flow freely down my face

 

The emptiness is a canyon

Echoing, echoing, echoing, the pain

The hurt is a giant crushing my heart

Slowly, so slowly, ever so slowly

draining my mind

 

You where always there

so strong, so vibrant, so alive

I'm waiting to hear you

Your laughter, your voice

 

It is as if you simply stepped outside

And will soon walk back through the door

To tell stories, to make me laugh

I'm waiting

 

Gone. Why did you leave me?

I know you don't hurt.

I know you are better.

I know you were tired as you tried to be better.

 

You had said your goodbyes.

You were waiting to die,

So now I will let you go

To your new home in the heavens.
 

 

 

 

 

 

Best Friend-

 

Where have you gone?

Why did you leave me?

My childhood friend.

My gift sent from heaven.

 

You listened when I talked

You soaked up my tears

You comforted me in my fears

You were there through the years

 

I told you my secrets with whispers by night

I told you my plans with excitement by light

Never once did you grumble

Never once did you gripe.

But the years past

You grew older and I grew up

We were still friends

but it was not the same as it was

 

Then the day came you were ready to die

I had to say goodbye

With many tears and sad sighs

It meant a lot to me

The faithful years you stayed by my side

 

You were tired and old

You were wanted to move on

But you held on

Just one more night

To say one more goodbye

 

I miss you my friend

I wish to see you once again

But until that day

Run free
