Months have gone by
A blur of time
And while wounds may heal
Those raw emotions remain
All the same
As the night I learned
Nothing would ever be the same
The words spoken that night
Are fading away
Lost in the divide
Between what was once
Best friends forever
But fate had plans
No one could foresee
And in the blink of an eye
You were taken away from me
And I miss you
And don’t know why it’s so damn hard
For me to say goodbye
I’ve lost you to the eternal
Without knowing when I’ll be allowed
To see you again
While the pain of loss
Clings still close I open up to speak
But words again fail to free me
From missing you with
Every breath I take
Every day I wake
Every moment I live I wish with my all
For one more heartbeat to say
You meant so much more
Than I could possibly explain
Mere words fail me
My voice falls to a hush
Nothing escapes from
Within my heart
And I miss you
And don’t know why it’s so damn hard
For me to say goodbye
I’ve lost you to the eternal
Without knowing when I’ll be allowed
To see you again
Nothing feels real
Like the shallowness of dreams
As I move through a life
I never expected to see
You’re gone from here
And I don’t know where to turn
I stare at the phone praying you’ll call
And these past months
Can be erased
I miss your smile
The sound of your voice
The way your eyes sparkled
When you hit the right cord
The memories are all that remain
Of a friendship
I’ll never forget or have again
And I miss you
And don’t know why it’s so damn hard
For me to say goodbye
I’ve lost you to the eternal
Without knowing when I’ll be allowed
To see you again
Every day I remember
How truly blessed I was
To know someone so pure
And giving of their love
I will never forget you
I couldn’t even try
You will remain with me always
What I feel will never die
I only wish I could hold you
One more time
Look into your eyes
And take the time
To tell you all this
And finally cry
As I say goodbye
Before you leave
For the last time
And I miss you
And don’t know why it’s so damn hard
For me to say goodbye
I’ve lost you to the eternal
Without knowing when I’ll be allowed
To see you again
So with these simple words
I try in vain
To vocalize
How much I love you
I know one day
I will see you again
But until then
You will remain
A most treasured and special memory
