Feeling Blue...
April 2009 Once Dad was goneWe had no clueNo way to know
What we should do.
The missing him…the empty chair
The smiling face that just isn’t there.
Things we thought you just go through
And someday it won’t feel so new.
We couldn’t see or plan or know
That all our grief would start to grow.
Him leaving us, cuts oh so deep
Him leaving Mom, so far past grief.
She’s failing, falling, losing it all
That’s how she feels
While we feel small.
More helpless as each day goes past
Things keep happening so fast.
I try to think of words to say
Comfort, hope, strength for today.
But I will tell you what feels true
There’s nothing, nothing I can do.
No way to make things good again
No way to mend what just won’t mend.
No way to make things seem “okay”
No way to make it go away.
I don’t know how it’s done, do you?
A message, answer, something new?
I think you don’t; you’d like to try
But you have your own tears to cry
I know you’re out there
I know you care.
Thanks for listening
Just had to share.
