Pain

As ashes become ashes
And dust turns to dust
You won't accept the truth now
It still feels like she's with you,
BUT SHES NOT.

Silence is a bad thing
Sometimes when you know
That the end is coming
And you cant do a thing.

Its a long car ride
Theres a mute on the sound
You're looking out the driver's seat
You're listening to music,
But you're not listening to
Those eyes.

Those eyes sited beside you,
Those eyes are filled with fear
I guess that's what its really like
to know the end is near.

I had a best friend.
But now she's gone.
She wasn't human,
But a dog.

I wasn't very nice
But she was there for me still,
whenever I was misunderstood.
She was was friendly.

It's really messed up
I realize that I loved her
And that I really cared
But now there's no one to hear
Except maybe the wind.

My family doesn't believe me
When I say I'm sad
They just think that I'm heartless
Or the tin man from Oz
They always misunderstood me...
They always poked fun...
She did not.

I once thought death was funny.
I once thought death was sad.
I even thought once that death
was cool....
But now I think it's just plain lonely.

I've never been to a funeral.
Except memorials and a place
to meet the family
I've never seen a body go into the
ground, except on TV.

Who am I gonna roughhouse
When there's nothing to do?
Who am I going to cuddle up with
When I'm feeling blue?

How could I look at any other dog
with out thinking;
My dog once could walk;
My dog was once alive,
But my dog departed on a one
way, no refundable train ticket
To 'Somewhere Else'.

I wonder where she went
I don't believe in Heaven or Hell,
But if there is, she would definitely
go to Heaven.
Maybe she was re-incarnated
Into a new life form.

I have pain for my mother
She couldn't have any more kids
She loved her like a baby
Even though I felt like she loved
her more than me.

I know that she's heartbroken
And that time won't ease her pain
She might be 'acting' normal
But she still has a hard time to
face the fact that Death is final.

Maybe one day,
She will meet up with her
And they'll live peacefully.

Maybe by then
She'll realize that she was too over
cautious.

Maybe by then,
I'll realize that love is eternal
That Death is final
That ashes will become ashes
That dust will turn to dust
And that people won't always
accept the truth,
But the universe still lives on...
