O

My Pain

Into the flames rising out of a setting sun,
I draw in a deep breath before I run...
Run away from the pain
Pain inside my heart, the heart that aches
Aches in memory of the day
The day I lost her
We were close, we were one
One of the same, One of a kind
Then she was gone
Gone with the wind of time
Time I lost with her
We always talked
Talked about life, about visiting
Till she left, left me, left the world
I feel so alone, so burdened
Burdened with the ache of what if
What if I was there?
What if I called more?
What if I saw her... one... last... time?
It hurts...
Hurts to think about, hurt to know
She was alone, alone when she left me
I remember all our plans, all our creative thoughts
We were best friends, sisters even
That's how we acted
Even if she was my aunt
My aunt who's gone, who's now happy
Happy without me
She was in pain, she tried to hide it
But...
I knew, I knew she was, we were close
I could tell when she's hurting
I wish I could've helped more
could've taken away her pain
could've asked her to... STAY
But its it's to late
I.. Was.. To.. Late
And it hurts
It's been a year and a half
and it hurts like... it was yesterday
Cuz she knew...
Knew she was leaving, knew it was her time
She was prepared, she... was... READY
I wasn't... and it hurts
It will always hurt
