Never had I thought in all my years
That your absence would bring me tears.
Now you’re gone, I’m on my own.
I’m forced to face this world alone.
Without your listening ear to confide
Or your wise words that would always guide
Me in the right direction. But wait…
Okay, I think there’s still a connection
I just heard you whisper in my ear,
Just keep walking. I’m right here.
