Your Gone

    Last night I laid myself down
For it was time for some sleep
Wide awake with my mind racing
Watching time slowly creep

I don’t know why but I started thinking
Of you and I felt you near
I saw a blurred vision of you
And slowly it began to clear

We were in Phoenix Arizona, I had you
Come into my room to listen to Beth
I wanted to touch you but I didn’t dare
The room was cold I could see my breath

I wanted the moment to last
I must have slipped into a dream
I tried to make sense of this reality
It was so surreal yet like a movie scene

You were so alive but it could not be
Though Phoenix was pre 1991
I tried to hug you and the vision faded
I cried again because your gone

In memory of my mother
She passed in May of 1991
Phoenix was 76-79
