TIME LOST

by Lisa Reed   Dec 11, 2003


I need some questions answered,
But questions they will stay,
Cause now you are not here with us,
My friend you are away.

I don’t know what life held for you,
Or what pain you felt inside,
All I know is misery,
Knew not the troubles you did hide.

I know I search for answers,
I guess you did that too,
We thought that you were happy,
Though we did not have a clue.

You could have talked things over,
So it would not seem bad,
All we hold is memories,
Of the friend that we once had.

You’ll never be a father,
Or watch your children grow,
You don’t know how much we feel,
Our hearts are aching so.

Its hard to come to terms with,
There’s nothing we can do,
Wish we could turn back the time,
Those precious times we spent with you.

To watch the smiles upon your face,
Your cheery little grin,
And feel the warm felt happiness,
You made us feel within.

I know that just wont happen,
Memories are all we share,
Its just so hard to realise,
No longer will you be there.

    I've read so many of these poems that are dedicated to friends/family that have died and all of them, including yours, are ones that the people they are dedicated to would be so proud to read. Well done, it's really great, K
