Gone

Gone

Here I sit broken-hearted

My best buddy has departed

Oh how will I ever survive

The grief and agony eating me alive

Fiends lost to the afterlife

Fill our hearts with strife

Losing a friend can cause pain

In our hearts and our brain

The loss of one’s parents

Nowhere hints

At the pain felt

When one is dealt

The blow of a friend’s death

The loss of a friend

Can bend

Our senses

Causing us to build fences

Around our hearts

So cherish your friends Right until the very end

With all your might

You never know when friends will take flight
