Best friend

The image of you lying in bed
Not waking up to face the new day
You are my best friend, my life my beautiful boy
But now you are gone away

I used to try and be strong,
I wanted to be alright
But it was just too hard
Because you slipped away in the night

You left me with emptiness in my heart
You left me pained
Why did you die? Why did you leave?
What could you have possibly gained?

Now I am all alone,
I sit, I cry
The sorrow returns
I can only ask why?

I lie on my bed
And start to sever
Blood spills out
The scars are forever

All because you could not hold on
You could not be strong
Why did God give you cancer
Why did you suffer so long?

Why did it have to be my best friend
No one understands
So now I sit here staring
Looking at the blade in my hands

I want to stop hurting
But I cant lie
Nothing can help
I want to die
