Adam, Why Did You Have To Die?

by Jack Daniels - Virgo

I'm sitting here
Crying again
I've been trapped in this maze
Too long in the game

We used to everything
We used to camp in the dark
We used to talk
I loved you with all of my heart

I remember the summers breeze
Playing in the leaves
Tearing along the grass
Heading for home

We shared so many thoughts
Hopes and dreams
We could never be caught
This light isn't what it seems

When you went
I lost a little bit of me too
God, how i wish
I could be up there with you

I wipe the tears from my eyes
I wish you could see me now
But what does it matter?
Its all over now!

The screams the tears
The lights the fears
As i walk back
To the hiding place again

If I listen in the night
I can almost hear your shouts
I can almost see your face so bright
Whats this world all about?

Why did you have to go?
Can't you hear my cry?
I really need to know
Why did you have to die?.....

Reason for writing:

    For my best best best friend in the world, adam, who went to heaven 5 years ago. During the night I still miss him, and cry silently in the dark.
