I Died Today

I died today
the pain ripped through
I had no say
there was nothing I could do
I cried a lot
my eyes swollen shut
the grief I thought I had forgot
no ifs, ands, or buts
My soul fled today
hated who I was
there was no other way
it flew away just because
and I died
twice more did I die
and I cried
all day long I cried
because I died today
and I saw your tears
threw you into the fray
I saw all of your fears
so I'll lay me down to sleep
but there is no Lord and no soul to keep
but if I die before I wake
I'll keep myself for another day
and I'll hold you in my arms
where you should be
before it took you
so very far away from me
only the flawed need angels wings
because they cant fly on their own
you are my wind, my air, my life
I just wish I could follow you where you roam....because I died today
