What is this life we hold so dear?
Why do we smile so much with each breath we take
It can so easily be gone ..... be taken a way
The laughter we had with friends
The food shared on many an occasion
The places we went
The times we spent
Will only become distant memories ....
For the life we hold so dear can just be taken...gone
Never to be seen again
We who are left are angry confused and in disbelief ....
Why did you do this Lord
When he was only beginning
How do we explain this away
What excuses do we give to naysayers
How do we accept this loss that has come so sudden
What is this life we hold so dear?
And what do we do with it while we're here
How do we really live when life will soon be lost to some tragic demise
Tell me what is this life we hold so dear?
