You left when the sky fell dark Along the side of an angel Leading your heart Hand and hand she took you High in the sky To your destination Far away from the pain You so long felt I cried with anger To me it just wasn’t fair I wanted you with me But instead you chose to go there I couldn't seem to let go my life was put on hold I wanted to shut myself out away from everyone and I did I missed you we were so close how could you have left me alone how selfish you were not at all concerned with me and everyone that loved you you made a bad choice but we were the ones to lose I hated you some part of me was actually glad that you were dead I didnt need you all you did was cause me pain I hope your happy leaving behind these tears when you left so unexpectantly thats how i felt Then one night you came to me in my sleep Told me how sorry you were and you never meant to hurt me I wanted to believe that God had a reason to take you away that i wasnt being punished even though I hated him for not letting you stay You told me everything was going to be okay you'd always be there in my heart to guide me and to love me like a big brother was suppose to I hated me for hating you told me it was ok to forgive How foolish I must have been It was me who left and not you
