Gone

As I lay my head to sleep.
Tears flow from my eyes with grief.
One day your here & the next your dead.
Never once did I think I'd wake & you'd be gone.
Head spinning; so surreal.
All I could do was scream & yell.
But no one would listen.
I wanted you to wake & breath on your own.
They told me there was nothing I could do & you were gone.
I couldn't understand.
The days just dragged on.

Days into weeks.
Weeks into months.
Months into years.
And still I sit here with a broken heart & eyes full of tears.
Still no cure; no answers for some relief.
I'd like to some day stop blaming me.
They say I couldn't of prevented it.
You fell asleep & never woke up.
Don't tell a mother she can't protect her baby.
Now how the hell do I go on?!

I may awake & put a smile on my face.
But behind the mask is a tear streamed face.
A broken heart within my chest that barely beats.
No one can take this pain away.
Or even give me relief.
Not a day will ever go by that I won't miss my Angel eyes.
And wish she was still in my arms instead of Heaven above.

Dead & gone there's nothing I can do.
Only morn for the daughter taken way to soon.
Love you Angel.
Not a day goes by you don't live on in my memory & this broken heart that some how still beats.
