4/9/20 –
Well you didn’t tell me nothing
That I wanted to hear
Maybe it’s my ego
Laced up in too much fear
You didn’t leave me nothing
But questions and tears
Mountains of moments
That add up to years
A lot of memories cut too deep
As I search for ones I’d like to keep
A lot of things left unsaid
Now that you’re gone
They fill up my head
Like a lonesome sad song
No amount of prayers
Could’ve peeled back the layers
No string of words
Could convey how much I cared
You always were an angel
Just wearing the devil’s clothes
In a struggle and so entangled
Now only heaven knows
Critics will say what they will
That you had a raw deal
They don’t know how you feel
And what is deemed divine will
Maybe on the other side
You’re our angel and our guide
To help us navigate these shifting tides
