Cry.



I chose my eyes so tight, it's pitch black no light.
Flashes of you in my mind, life's purpose you might find.
Your at peace where you ly, I wipe a year from my eye.
Much to say words can't explain, the thought of you drives me insane.
For it's not death I fear, it's your presence I always want here.
Please come visit me time to time, in all our dreams not just mine.
All my life you never let me down, I guess I got so use to having you around.
Your soul never spoken in vein, for now you don't feel no pain.
So many years run down my face, but I know now your in a better place.
In my mind are times spent together, And will always be imprinted in my heart forever.
