Jason K. Lachenmeier
Every time I close my eyes I see your face,
Why can’t I erase those wonderful memories when I am tired of crying?
I just want to get some sleep
I know you’re in your final resting place.
But still there are days when there is no way I can grab a tissue
Without thinking of you.
If only there was some cure to bring you back to me
So I could tell you all the things that were supposed to be.
I’m dying inside and it’s not your fault
You’re in a better place now please don’t default
We all miss you
But you know what they say is true
You’re selfish because the worst person took you
I wish I could continue where you left off
But I need you to take these memories and lift off
Go above and live your afterlife how you planned
Don’t let me get in the way of where you stand.
Keep going on to what was meant to be.
I’ll just stay down here till you’re ready for me
Because you see I feel I’m ready but I’m sure you’ll reach down,
Help me figure out when it’s my turn.
I love with you with all my heart
And I still can’t believe we had to part.
