Silent Goodbye


Gone from my silent life,
You've moved on into the light.
I'll never forget your sweet memory.
How much I wish you could see...
I miss you so, I want you back.
Why did you step off of the track?
I remember my last few times with you.
Even at the end, you didn't seem blue.
Pen on the paper, thoughts on my mind..
Why couldn't you have been given more time?
I remember the bed,
I remember the room.
I remember how the good Lord,
Took you too soon.
I wish you,were here today.
I wanted you to see me grow up.
See me fall in love, maybe even marry.
I love you in everyway.
I know dreams can't bring you back.
But as I walk over to you...
I'll lay a rose down for you.
And say my silent goodbye.
