Unspoken

*** Author's Note: Today was the funeral of a close friend, and as we all so often find, I did not tell her enough of what she meant to me. So, this is a taste of what I feel and what I should have said every day. What we should all say every day to those who mean the most. Please Enjoy Brudda Iz singing my favorite and most healing song. To all of those we miss and love. ***

I feel the broken shards you left behind

They split apart and stab my insides

The pain spreads throughout me

Everything we were meant to be

Has disappeared into nothingness

All I have left is this deep darkness

What am I to say, my friend?

That I wish this wasn't the end?

That I miss the moments we shared?

I hope you know how much I cared

When I was too weak and foolish

To show how much you were missed

And not that it's too late to show you

I can only pray that you really knew

I was too selfish to help you see

Just how much you meant to me

So, I'm left with these broken shards left behind

And they split apart and stab my insides

As the pain spreads throughout me

At the loss of everything we were meant to be

All of this hollow nothingness

Has left me sitting in darkness

As I remember the moments we shared

And pray you knew just how much I cared

Can you forgive me for being so weak?

Those important words I couldn't speak

I'm so sorry I was too selfish to help you see

Just how important you were to me

What else can I say, my friend?

You were so much better than me in the end
