In time this hurting will pass,
for now its just too near.
You have to allow yourself to heal,
when you lose someone so dear.
Lately my smiles are mingled,
with all the tears I shed.
Its the nighttime and the darkness,
that I seem to dread.
I lay there each night,
and cry myself to sleep.
I know in time that too will pass,
but right now its just too deep.
My days are long and troubled,
I look at pictures and the memories there.
Its breaking my heart daily,
as I look up to Heaven and stare.
In time I know I will feel,
at peace and no longer ask, "Why?"
Then it will be easier to deal with,
but right now.....I need to cry.
