There's certain things that remind me
Colours and places surround.
Objects and words in front of me
And certain footsteps on solid ground.
The smell of rain the summer
And the silent stillness of the night.
The sunrise in the morning
And I know it will never be right.
I hear songs and sayings
Of how people claim to feel.
Words of loss that they utter
It still doesn't look real.
You lie six foot deep, buried.
Buried out of sight in the dark.
You've closed your eyes forever
But not before you left your mark.
And I say these words silently
Locked away in the chambers of my mind.
I long to again breathe in your essence
Because it's something you couldn't leave behind.
So badly wish I could hug you
Or just get to touch your hand.
I'm lying here with my heart breaking
And nobody will ever really understand
Because you were my whole world,
My today's, tomorrow's and yesterdays.
My soul, mind and body
But you had to go away.
So can somebody tell me
Tell me just how in the hell that you're gone?
But can somebody also tell me
Just how I'm supposed to go on?
