Goodbye
I wade through a sea of questions,
And walk the sand of grief,
I live through endless tensions,
Yet manage to keep my belief,
You can't be dead,
I know that it's not true,
You said to keep my head,
But how can I without you?
You left for war,
To keep the peace,
You walked out the door,
And took with you my release,
You said you'd be back,
You hugged our little Grace,
I even helped you pack,
Not knowing you lied to my face,
Now they say you're dead,
That you served your country,
And it was for us that you bled,
Now I sit quietly at your funeral,
I feel the pats left on my back,
I hear the 'sorries' that seem brutal,
Feeling tears as I begin to crack,
How is it possible?
You were so virile, so alive,
Life now doesn't seem passable,
Without you by my side,
I dream of you until dawn,
How can I say "I love you too,"
Now that you have gone,
And the child that we made together is all that's left of you...
