There are moments when
I’d miss you
And my heart stops
I forget how to breathe
My body aches
I’d long for our youth
My first real heartbreak
My first true loss
For I could never get you back
I’m not sure if there is a God
But there was you
So I’d find your tombstone
Pray to your corpse
I’d pray that you’re in a better place
That you’re at peace
That you’re watching us from above
And I’d pray to tell you how sorry I am
That I’m surviving and you didn’t
Wishing you hadn’t left
How things would be easier if you were here
To tell me to believe in myself
To not give up
To keep pushing forward
And so I live
For the both of us
To carry on your brilliant spirit
Your vibrant soul
In this cruel world
I’ll carry a piece of you
And guard it with my life
Hoping I will feel your rebirth
When angels inhabit Earth again
