As I stand here in the rain
Lookin down at the coffin that filled me with so pain.
A tear falls down my cheek
To land on the flat plaines of your case.
my eyes are red and puffy
My hair wet and soggy.
My clothes soaked to the brim,
With what seems like tears of sorrow from the pain
Of the creator, or that's at least what they say.
Slowly
Slowly
I walk away.
But in my head I know you're safe.
I know I shouldn't be selfish,
But losing you is making me feel sluggish.
Just think of the good times, is all I say in my head
As I walk away from the sadness that surrounded me,
Suffocating me to no end.
Why aren't they happy?
That's what she would of wanted!
I guess I'll leave it to myself to follow your wish.
Just you wait,
It'll be coming soon!
Let me just take a detour while it's still noon.
Here. I. Am.
In our special spot.
Thinking about all the times we would have some fun.
Remember that time we would run and sing
In the grass, where we would call the Dream.
I remember.
It was so much fun.
When we were little, we would just run for the sun.
Laughing.
Giggling.
Yep, those were the times!
Just thinking about it makes me want to slap the frowns
And turn them into smiles
Because you're not in pain, no you're happy wherever you are.
In fact,
You're probably chasing the sun!
No more grief.
No more frowns.
I'll be happy.
No, I am happy
'Cause I know that you're happy there up in the clouds!
I can imagine you there,
Just chasing the sun
Having a merry blast,
Like Virgin Mary when she had Jesus her son!
I'll let go,
I'll be happy,
As I go running through the grass to chase that sacred sun!
Panting, panting.
Laughing, laughing!
Tears are streaming down my face with happiness,
Just living through the tough times
And going through the sad times.
But this grin on my face will never disappear
As long as I have the sun, to shine through
My problems and bring light into the darkness.
That's why I'll never stop chasing the sun!
So thank you for being there when the times were tough
And thanks for being there until the end,
But you are gone now my dear friend,
And I hope you are filled with happiness wherever you are,
Like that promise we made a long time ago.
Even till death do us part, we will always be
Chasing the sun!
