I never heard her say your name but I felt it in between each line she said. I could feel it in the quivering of her voice how much she missed you and needed you back. A mother should never have to bury her son.

It's in the moments where I find myself alone that I remember you.
The love that use to be mine for you,
Has suddenly disappeared.

But it's when I look at the blue in the river,
That I remember the summer we splashed in it proclaiming our joy to the world.
It's when I look at the grass flowing with the rush of the wind,
That I remember you running after me as we played with children's delight.

It's when I look in the mirror and see who I've become
Is when the pain comes from remembering how things use to be.
It's when I take walks by myself that I imagine your hand grasping mine.
It's when I'm driving that I think back to the dreams I had of going on that date,
That special date that I dreamed of.

Why do I love to dream so much about you?
Why are the memories so beautiful, so sweet, but oh so painful?
You've created a hole in my heart that seems like only you can fix.

How did life turn to this?

The dreams that have been crushed has indeed crushed that hopeful spirit of a little girl that never realized the reality of life.

My only prayer is that life treats you well. Live your life, love it greatly. But please, never forget about the little girl who loved you more than she ever could have loved herself.
Giving him once again to my Savior. Restore, Lord. Restore.

So far away
Capturing my heart
Taking it with you
So far far away

I long for you
I need you
But you don't need me
Breaking me apart
Causing me pain

How dare you
Taking my heart
Making me love you
Deeply
Without loving me back

I focus on your eyes
those two deep blue oceans
and wonder why you wave over me
yes, it's true that I'm imperfect
but are you any better?

You can't feed me servings of silence
like an unsolved piece of a puzzle
please move your stiff ghost occasionally
let it consume something other than
your tortured, self-consumed mind.

These walls keep you from leaving my sight,
yet why are they the closest from tumbling down?

Only prayers keep me sane anymore.
                             ...
Resting my eyes as you call out my name
you whisper it to the shadows within the clouds
but only because it's forever the name of a stranger.

— The End —
