I wrote this with a friend in mind who was going through a loss.
This morning I woke and could only remember
What it was like when we were still together
But part of my heart did depart yesterday
Replaced by a feeling that won't go away

I'm happy to see that the sun is still warming
There's cold in my bones, I'm in need of some thawing
But somewhere, out lighting another part of the sky
The blue moon has realized this is goodbye

Holes have been dug in the park of my heart
Where joy had once frolicked sorrow embarks
On a journey, it seems, to take far away
The happiness that I have been wishing could stay

These holes, in my heart, are the hardest to fill
I'm gathering dirt but I haven't the will
To bury the emptiness that now leaves me here
Feeling all by myself while so many are near

I know that I will not see you again
But you will not hear me say this is the end
For there're stars in the sky that remain in my sight
So shine on forever and I'll wish you goodnight
