- I wish that I could take and hold
- Their heartache, shock... and fear
- And let them know... it will be ok
- But I wonder... How do I get near
- I feel like I should do much more
- How and where does one begin
- To fill a void that’s left inside
- And free emotions trapped within
- I’ve been told... that time heals all
- But each one runs... at their own pace
- Time moves different... for us all
- And no one really wins this race
- So I guess the best for me to do
- Is to let them know I’m here
- To listen to what they have to say
- And share with them...a tear
- Or just to be there... with no words
- As silence echoes through the air
- When spoken thoughts are soon replaced
- By one’s simple, caring... tearful stare
- The important thing is not to fear
- As we all will be there, in that place
- When time stands still and colors fade
-
A circle of life... we must embrace...
