april 1st
suppose to be a day of laughter
but instead
just another day and year
when someone will always be serious
about
how april fools day
turning into april dark day

it all started april 1st, 2000
sunny day when someone lost a dear friend

then april 1st, 2001
another sunny day they cry and mourn
because the year before
they miss to the one they lost

april 1st, 2002
thunderous time when they drank
and cried to the one they lost
this was exactly a year later

it's just that day when someone meets someone
someone who needs all the help one can receive
so now
as one reflects back and commits to that person
to be there for that person
to now allow anything to happen to that person and family

what happen to that someone
please wake up
please wake up
gain strength and have faith
these are things someone tells someone
but that person doubts
one can hear the person
someone tried
someone tries to forget april 1st
day that continues to haunt
please help that person free you from that trap
and you pull that person
out of that horror
than occurs on april fools day
