Too Far Away
November 9, 2013
The day was normal
Laughter
Glee
Humor filled the air
Until I got the call
I didn't expect it
Not at all
When a life ends short
It's such a morbid surprise
There was so much for you to look forward to
Graduation
Marriage
Kids
And it all got taken away
From one fateful accident
People may mourn for a couple of weeks
But after that all you are is dust
Isn't that what we all are anyway?
Dust?
I just wanna say
I won't forget you
I won't fail to remember your presence
I need you still here
But I know you're far away
