the phone rings
The police on the other line
A two car accident
They said your body was found in one of the cars


My life ends
I  can’t catch my breath


My love
My life
Dead they tell me


My love
My life
The mother of my children
The rock upon which my life stands


Taken from me
Ripped from the life we had together
Torn away

How
How do you say goodbye to a dear friend
Someone you laughed with
Someone you cried with
You made memories together


How do you say goodbye to a good friend
Someone like family
Someone closer than family
You had fights
You made up
You hated each other
You became friends again


How do you say goodbye to a good friend
A pal
A companion
A heart of gold
With a devilish smile


How do you say goodbye to an old friend
Someone you grew up with
Someone you knew your whole life

How do you say goodbye to an old friend

Go
Let’s go
Pedal to the metal
Rubber to the road


Heading down the highway
As the world passes by


Sights to see
Places to go
Adventure bound

The void
The unknown
Dark and scary


To chance to partake
An adventure
A chance to stretch your limits
A chance to grow


To learn
To excell
To acheive


However
The void
Could go the other way


Death
Destruction
Damnation


The void
A mysteriuos spot
Will it lead you
To personal growth
Or
Will it lead you
To your own death


You will never know
Until you step in
The void

Sleep
Slumber
Dream


The troubles of the world
Locked outside
A world of your creation
Locked inside your mind


Sleep
Slumber
Dream


Relax
Renergize
The body
The mind
The soul


Sloop
Slumber

A hug
A gesture of kindness
A show of compassion and care


Friendship
Family
Trust
Honor
Gentelness


A light in dark times
Warmth in the coldness of the world
Color
Within the grey


A hug
So simple
Yet
Says so much

I love you
I love you
I love you


How can I be more plain
How can I make you see more clear


I’ve tried
And
I’ve tried
Everything I know
To let you see
How much you mean to me


You are my life
The very air I breathe
The very water that I drink


Without you
There is no life for me
Only darkness and decay
Only bitterness and hate


You are my stronghold
My safe haven
From life’s stormy blasts
From life’s battles


I love you
I love you
I love you
