Many questions fill my mind
But the key word
Always seems to be
Why?

Why did you have to go this way?

Why can't you still be here to stay?

Why can't you be here in my arms?

Why don't I grow tired of holding on?

My knees have grown tired
From asking God why?

My heart has been broken
Completely this time

What would he ask me,
As he gazes down upon me?
I believe
This, he would ask

Why do you let yourself
Live this way?

Why do you still grieve
In pain?

Can't you see, that I
Didn't leave?
You hold a piece of me
Everywhere you go

I may be gone
But I'll never let you go

Will you please
Be strong for me?
For, one day you will see
That we can be together again

It may seem like forever
Dear friend
But your broken heart
Will some day mend

When we can be
Together again
