Goodbye my friend

why am i crying
would anyone understand
why my heart is breaking
into pieces, if it can?

why am i sad
would anyone understand
the level of sadness
of losing you, my friend?

i have thought of you often
would anyone understand
why there is a special spot
for you, be it then?

would anyone understand
why it hurts me so bad
i have lost you today
why i'm feeling sad
but all is fated
i wish you His blessings
and all of God's graces
as your journey begins

Be here I will be, still

When I miss you
There's nought I can do
Your night is my day
You're so far away

You're often on my mind
If time was so kind
I'd ask for a favour
For us to be together

Sometimes I wish it was easy
That you were just next to me
We can chat to our hearts content
And share what we really meant

But what's meant to be
You're not here with me
Neither am I with you
To live what you go through

So cast away your worries
Be here I will be, still
I'll listen to your stories
Though their roles, I can't fill

I'll be here for when you need me
I'll be here for when you don't
So you'll know just where I'll be
And let you down, I won't
