It makes me so sad I cry,
But I don't I keep it inside to keep tears from spilling down my eyes,
Why did you have to die?
Why did you have to end your life with a sigh?

I miss you. You used to lay on my bed at night and keep my warm,
I wish you were here now so I could cuddle you in my arms!
But you're not here. . .
I just strive harder to keep back that hidden tear.

Why did you have to go so soon?
And keep me lonesome in my room?
With a longing for you that never goes away,
And stays with me day by day!

Why couldn't you have stayed?
Before in the ground in your box you were laid.
I will miss you forever,
I don't think pain will go away. . . Never.
