Helpless – Words of Sympathy

My sadness today knows no bounds
As I sit here attempting to scribble verbs and nouns
I cannot laugh; I sigh and frown
I’m helpless

My thoughts are confused; I can’t think clear
Whilst you are far away, yet physically near
I speak – I do not know if you can hear
I’m helpless

I cannot begin to understand
Why are you being taken from this land?
Have you been selected for some eternal plan?
I’m helpless

And now as the end of your life draws near
I do not know what to do, or say – I fear
That each breath you breathe will be the last I hear
I’m helpless

Why – Words of Sympathy

You made me laugh,
you made me cry,
you made me sit and wonder why.

you were the one,
you were important,
now your just a memory.

you use to drink,
you use to drive,
you never thought that you would die.

it’s not your fault it is mine,
i shouldn’t of let you drink and drive,
but i did and now your gone,
and i’m alone.

you made me laugh,
you made me cry,
you made me sit and wonder why.

Releasing Me – Words of Sympathy

It hurts when I think of you but its impossible not to
I wish I could let go but you don’t know
How much I miss you
Everyday I pray that you will take all the things back
All the horrible things you said
And we could be a family once again
But that day hasn’t come yet
And I am not sure it ever will
And I am willing to except that fact
I wish I didn’t dream of you
But I just don’t know how not to
But someday I will and someday I’ll move on
And learn to live without you
Someday you will free me and I will be ok
But for now I just need to say I am trying to move on
But something is holding me back
Figuring it out is the hardest part yet
Always I will care for you
Nothing can take that away
But right now I can’t be your child
For I am trying to spread my wings and fly away to a better place
Please don’t clip my wings I know it’s hard
But you need to give me back my heart
And let me have my brand new start.
