I can almost touch the horror Hanging over your hospital bed From where I stand rage chokes my composure I can see your tender terrorized innocence Your tormented virgin soul Your confounded conscience And your blistered esteem… Your ordeal eludes my understanding And I seem not to reason why… Why your predicament could not be averted Yet you tried to say it in word and manner But you were ignored because you were just a child And children can say some outrageous things… Like feigning defilement by a kin or a neighbour They shut you up child but I will speak on your behalf Till these ogres are hanged on the nearest lamp post

I woke up this morning Thinking of you Reached for your warmth As I always would do Your side of the bed Was empty with fold Pillows in place Untouched and cold I did not smell coffee The news was not on Things seem so different Since you are gone Your sweet smelling scent Is fading away So I cling to your memory In every possible way Motivating myself Is a struggle to do Hard to see sunshine When feeling so blue They say it gets better As time goes by To look for the good At least give it a try Something happened At work today I started to call you Right away Sadly remembering I hung up the phone You were not there God took you home My heart is hurting My soul cries with pain I've got nothing to lose I've got nothing to gain Time is one asset I have plenty to spare Holding on tight Going nowhere I'm looking for good As I have been told Reaching for warmth Yet, shiver with cold Darling, I miss you In every way And still loving you "Forever and a Day."
