Alone Was I

Alone was I
on that sad fourth of July
I can remember it all so well
the pains
the cuts that will always remain,

I could see the fire works
while life was slipping you bye
Oh, how this makes me cry
to find out someone had taken your life,

Alone was I
without you by my side
you was only a little guy
you was only five
on that sad fourth of July ,

The mystery binds my mind
how could someone be so cold
to take your soul .

Poetic Lilly Judy Emery (c)
