Loss

You taught me how to laugh and how to care,
To ride a bike and to always play fair.

You dried my tears and caused some too,
We fought and argued, "you are you!"

We danced and sang, the life and soul,
Took random roads on life's pub-crawl.

You taught me well, I have grown up strong,
I made you proud, I did all along.

But at times like these it is so hard, to cope with your last lesson, your farewell card.

In every memory and every song I learn this lesson because you are gone.

When

Under the moonlit starry night sky. She shivers and shakes with a tear in her eye. The bridge that she stood on, many times through the years. She's one step away from, but that step she can't bear.

"Who New" (by P!nk)

You took my hand. You showed me how. You promised me you'd be around. Uh huh. That's right. I took your words. And I believed. In everything. You said to me. Yeah huh. That's right.

Always Here With Me

You left us today but your still here with me They said you went in your sleep, peacefully. Ninety four years of loving, laughing and crying. I wish I could have seen your smile just one more time.

Put A Rose On My Heart

Went to the place where we first met. Put a rose on the road with no regret. Went to the place where we first kissed. Put a rose on the floor along with the last tear you missed.

For JK

Time stood still when you left us, though mornings turned to night. Day broke through the darkness, but some would remain inside us, we're all to human, our hubris marks us.
