PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I heard the news today I dropped everything I had and didn't know what to say

The shock settled in and it is taking some time but in my head you're just fine.

I trace my lips around the words but can't figure what they form and I drag my stuff across the floor.

I take a walk to a place where I think I can clear my head, but the news today is always one step bad.

I close my eyes and hold back my tears and notice I shoulda stuck it out through the years

Your smile flashes before my eyes and it is still so hard to realize

and I take a step back and notice what the suggestion was I take a step closer back to the fuss

Something went wrong and I can't bare my own face, I close my eyes trying to find my happy place.

I remember the times we spoke about personal lies personal secrets and personal ties

I remember the thoughts we used to share and how you were a friend who cared.

I remember it all and I never really got to know you...Oh the thing I would do...

I force a smile you were always the happy one, always beckoning everyone to have a little fun.

I regret not hanging out with you more, and I drag my stuff further to the door.

Your sweet face and your sweet voice float across the blowing wind, the shock still intact...Oh Sweet Erin...

I miss you, we all miss you, there is nothing not one of us wouldn't do...

So remember when you are looking down upon us all, never try to jump never let yourself fall

You're an angel now and that's just the way it is, they needed you there but we will always miss

Sweet Erin, Sweet Sweet Erin, Peace may you Rest in

Watch over us, but also know you are loved...
