Accepting the truth

>~ Emma always remembered ~<

When I first heard the news
I didn’t believe it was true,
I couldn’t accept the fact
That death had taken you.

Wrapped its cold bone fingers
Around your warming heart
Floated through your inside
And left us torn apart.

Left us hear to cry
Tears that won’t be heard
Screaming from within
But no one hears a word.

Lost within a world of
Despair, hatred and pain
I know time will pass but
I’ll never forget your name.

You’ve left little footsteps
Imprinted on my heart
We ask why you finished
And why did you start?

Why did you start to end your life?
Why did you want to die?
We are so sorry you have left us
But can you tell us why?

But it’s over now your gone
You vanished just that day
But deep within our bodies
In our hearts you’ll always stay.

I’ll pray for you every night
But I’m angry with you too
You’ve hurt a lot of people
Coz the love they had for you.

If you can hear me now
And the prayers that have been said
You’ll understand the love
And the tears that have been shed

But now I’ve heard the news
And I know that it is true
I’ve learnt to accept the fact
That death has taken you.
