Yesterday
Some might say
I should just get over it
But they don't know the trials and tribulations I've been through
Without you
You were next to me
When you took your final breath
I was holding you tight
And looking into your fading eyes
That used to shine so bright
But they still illuminate my mind
The weight of carrying you on the way home
Was so heavy and my arms felt frail
But I carried on
Because you carried me through my teenage years
And even when I was a child
Learning how cruel life can be
I never understood that until the universe took you away from me
You were next to me
When you took your final breath
I was holding you tight
And looking into your fading eyes
That used to shine so bright
But they still illuminate my mind
It felt like yesterday
I see it all so vividly
I wish I had more
Than 24 hours
To say my final words
Just us two, more than a few
I love you
You told me indirectly that I'll make it through til the end
But our ends met
And I felt the light dimming
When I closed my eyes after you stopped shimmering
At least you weren't shivering anymore
I came home to an empty house
It became darker than before
You were next to me
When you took your final breath
I was holding you tight
And looking into your fading eyes
That used to shine so bright
But they still illuminate my mind
I should just get over it
But they don't know the trials and tribulations I've been through
Without you
You were next to me
When you took your final breath
I was holding you tight
And looking into your fading eyes
That used to shine so bright
But they still illuminate my mind
The weight of carrying you on the way home
Was so heavy and my arms felt frail
But I carried on
Because you carried me through my teenage years
And even when I was a child
Learning how cruel life can be
I never understood that until the universe took you away from me
You were next to me
When you took your final breath
I was holding you tight
And looking into your fading eyes
That used to shine so bright
But they still illuminate my mind
It felt like yesterday
I see it all so vividly
I wish I had more
Than 24 hours
To say my final words
Just us two, more than a few
I love you
You told me indirectly that I'll make it through til the end
But our ends met
And I felt the light dimming
When I closed my eyes after you stopped shimmering
At least you weren't shivering anymore
I came home to an empty house
It became darker than before
You were next to me
When you took your final breath
I was holding you tight
And looking into your fading eyes
That used to shine so bright
But they still illuminate my mind
