You Are My Life

by Alexander   Aug 15, 2007


Its was you
And your smile
That always made me
Think things through

If it wasn't for you
I'd probably be dead
From cutting to deep
Out of defeat

But who knew cancer
Would soon be your downfall
Certanly not me
Or even your parents

It striked like a cobra
With no warning at all
It took you away
From us all

It was only two weeks ago
That you closed your eyes
Forever and ever
Thats when it was all over

I was the one
Sitting by your hospital bed
I was the only one
In the room to hear your final breath

At that moment i broke down
And started to weep
For the first time in years
I felt the feeling of defeat

My mother and grandma
Died this same way
But i never did cry
Until that day

I cried for you all
And then i cried some more
I didn't think i would ever quit
Because my heart had been ripped from my chest

You were the one
Who new me the best
You knew all my secrets
And you knew the real me

But now that your gone
My life seems through
Its like im never going to get through
This darkness that consumes
