Holiday angel

another holiday
without you

loss isnt the same
as it once was
it hurt but not so much

come hold my hand
come walk with me

if you were here would you care for me

to care for you even as you're gone
to wish for you here
with those little arms

hand in hand
we could've ruled the world
hand in hand
we never would've lost

i smile up
the sky has an angel
i cry up
the sky took my angel

but for the holidays
i hold your hand
in spirit
in dreams
in life's everyday

for i have lost you once
but i am stronger for it
i have suffered once
but i live longer everyday

my heart aches
my eyes cry
but your light shines through
and makes me stronger for what's next.

Breathe life back in

hearts break into two
souls ripping apart
never understood
what awaits in the dark

better to have lost
than to have suffered
better to have lived
than to have lost precious moments

time passes by
never giving the chance
time flashes by
the past never happened

the pain
the sadness
the irony of a situation

to understand the loss
to understand the gain
to value whats around
to cherish what you had

to love someone lost
to hold high above the light
to give them power over your life

intent to live for the better
for sake of them
intent of being better
for sake of sanity

to fight and fight
one self
to overcome tragedy
to overcome obstacles

to sit and let go
let pain inhale
let happiness exhale
breathe life back in
to those dark filled places

never to know
never to understand
why it must be the way it is

keep moving forward
into the darkness
because with discovery
comes light
