Children Who Die Are Not Really Alone
Children who die are not really gone,
But go to a place that is something like home,
Where they sleep the deep sleep, as quiet as stone,
Until we can join them when our lives are done.
Children who die are not really dead,
But just like good children tucked into bed,
Wait the long wait while we go ahead
Till our tales are all told and our tears are all shed.
Children who die feel no pleasure or pain
In the place where they wait till they see us again,
And all of us dance in a world washed with rain
Where the sun shines so brightly no sorrows remain
-Travis Gayheart
Tried to lay in the sunshine
to feel the warmth of the day
but your memory is still haunting me
it makes me feel cold inside
I sat beneath the willow trees
in the garden of eden
hoping you would show your face
but you never came
its a sad denial
of the passion and love
that is now lost
in the past
i wanted to forget you
forget you so bad
now i walk the empty streets
walk the streets in the rain
walk the streets hoping to see your face
but i cant help but stare down
i reached the place
used to be my home
left in ruins
all alone
lost in the darkness of it all
i sit a wait for you
beneath the willow trees
in the rain
i sit and wait
you never did show your face
you never did show
then i realized why
why you never came
the reason is
you were dead
just a lost remain
but i still happen to go to that place
and sit and wait
wait for you beneath the willows
waiting in the rain
but i will see you one day
i will see you in hell
for our sins are not forgiven
the sins of what we have done
i will die waiting
waiting beneath the willow trees
waiting for you
waiting in the rain
