It hurts to have someone you love pass away,
And that you had no say,
In why he had to go away,
It hurts not knowing why,
And it hurts more each and every day,
Hurting in ways that could leave someone scarred,
Finding out that he passed away hit me so hard,
It hurts to do wrong,
Knowing that she's watching down on me,
Telling me to be strong,
Telling me to do right,
And even though I try with all my might,
I still can't see her no where in sight,
It hurts to accept that hes gone,
And harder to move on,
Hard to move on without her near,
That everyday I shed a new tear,
But I wish she was near,
To wipe away my tears,
And I'm hoping he can hear....my prayers,
It hurts not knowing why,
Why LOUIE had to die,
Missing hIM makes me break down and cry,
Because he left without a good bye,
he left me wondering why,
Someone like HIM had to die...
