Briefly



I'm missing you so much
it's becoming unbearable
The time that we shared was just that special
I didn't expect you to go so soon
Without you, my life feels like a nights sky
with no stars and no moon
I'd travel back to the past
and fix all the things that I could
I'd bring you back to me
because I feel that I should
I'd become a doctor to heal your body
and take away your pain
I want you back with me but I know there's no way
It's been two long months and I'm going insane
How can I possibly go on
knowing that I'll never see and talk to you again?
For twenty-seven years you've meant the world to me
I guess it was God's will
that we were supposed to be together briefly.
