I look around

I listen to all the sounds

I hear small talk laughing and crying

Everyone around me seems to be dying

Their loved ones are near

Whispering in their ears

Its gonna be alright, everything is going to be ok

But they don't know the emotional and physical pain they deal wit day to day

People send their "get wells" and flimsy flowers

But the clock keeps ticking, it could be any hour

The room is gloomy and silent

Although the flowers are vibrant

Family and friends come from all around

But they just stand there and don't even make a sound

I try to stay strong

But I have been dealing with this for too long

I'm tired of feeling all this hurt

It feels like my world has crashed and burned

The time has come

There life is done

In heaven Rest in Peace

Now all that's left are memories

And they treasures that we keep

It was sad to see them go

But there's something I'll always know

The kindness that they shared

And how they always cared

They were a blessing to be near

With them I had no fears

Although it was a tragedy

I wont let the pain get to me

Every time I think of them tears fill my eyes

The only time I see them is in my dreams at night

Even though there dead and gone

I know my life will still go on
