Who you'd be Today

Could you imagine a pain so deep down inside

That it can not be summarized in words you simply can write


A pain that touches your toes and up to the top of the ceiling


You can’t eat, you can’t sleep, that is the pain that I am feeling


But my father raised a boy that can stand on his own


But these different circumstances has got me feeling alone


All the doctors and the nurses say you’re dead and you’re gone


But it still feels like I could talk to you if I picked up the phone


You can’t fix a broken window you just replace the pane.


But there is no pain great enough to replace your face


With my eyes matted shut from the tears that I slept on


I thank God for the pictures and your voice on my cell phone.


But please, while you are awed in the mist of the Lord


Don’t forget all your friends and time spent on this world.


I will never have a friend like you again.


My heart is a vault now, I’m scared to let people in.


No matter how many oceans or rivers I cry


My heart will never let you go, I’ll never say good bye.


A lot of my hours are now spent in the place where you lay


As I sit crying, wondering, who would you be today.
