...
I tried to call you today after hearing the news.
But i hadn’t the strength to lift the phone
Nor the breath in which to speak.
As much as I desired to,
I could not be the strength you needed from me.
As much as I needed to run to your side,
I could barely stand on my own two feet.
How does one breath with no air in their lungs
How could I tell you how badly it hurts.
When I know you are suffering just as deeply as I.
Today we lost someone together,
Even though we are apart.
Today we all suffer from a broken heart.
I tried to call you today after hearing the news
But a part of my heart passed away as well
And even though I didn’t call, or run to be by your side,
I know you are never going to be alone…
Now that our angel has gone home.
