Gone Too Soon

Gone too soon are the days of playing in the sand,
of finding a new friend every day.
Gone too soon are the days with no worries or cares,
and living without a 'right way.'

Gone too soon is the joy from thoughts of [him]
or the chemistry of your lips the first time they touch.
Gone too soon the gentle embrace from your first love,
Including the heartbreak of the one you cared so much.

Gone too soon is the secret only one knew,
that would leave so suddenly without warning.
Gone too soon is the comfort of a best friend,
first a shoulder to cry on, then leaving us mourning.

Gone too soon are the days you leave behind,
the memories you with so hard to relive.
Gone too soon is the happiness you tried to persuade,
but slowly faded with the motivation you couldn't forgive.
