Gone.
Father why'd you leave me here,
why did you just disappear?
We all truly love you so
and did you really have to go?
How I wish you were still here,
if only so you would be near.
As I lay down for the night,
I pray to God with all my might,
to once more see your sweet smile
if only for a little while.
How I wish you were still here,
if only to allay my fear.
How I need your guiding hand,
to help me through this unknown land.
Yet gone are you my shinning light,
leaving me in this darkest night.

Poetry: Death of a loved one
by Judi B
Heaven Has My Hero Now
Heaven has my hero now,
My life with you is gone.
It's changed in oh, so many ways
But yet continues
"Never"
(In Loving Memory
For my Tattooed Queen)
Taken away before your time,
The debt paid before the crime,
Left but never
The Long Wait
The leaves fell down
Upon the autumn grass;
Frailty in every shade of red...
I sat by the window for a closer
Not a day goes by that I don't think of you
Neither sunrise nor sunset that I don't hear your voice
Or miss your laugh
And
Lights shine off in the distance
Nothing but blackness appears
There is resistance
Death whispers in my ear
He talks of a life
