You've left me here all by myself,
    to find a way to grieve;
It shreds my heart to think right now,
   you're happy without me.

I feel at times like nothings real,
   so hard to just move on;
Each breathe I take is crushing me,
   so heartbroke and alone.

I know you're happy Home sweet Home,
   just strollin' Heaven's shore;
But living here without you now,
   breeds pain I can't ignore.

I'm sorry that I feel this way,
   as sad as one can be;
Still tryin' to deal with one small thing-
   you're happy without me.
When a loved one passes away, the grieving process is different for everyone. Knowing they are gone to a better place of no pain or sorrow makes it easier for some to accept, whereas others silently deal with the difficulty of realizing that while they are hurting and lonely their loved one is happier and more free than ever.
