You're Gone, by Brian R. Velasquez Subscribe to rss feed for Brian R. Velasquez

I never thought the day would come
Everything went wrong and now you’re gone
When the light of day would fade away
Leaving me to a cold and lonely disarray

The one I loved the most was you
The endless tears come streaming through
I didn’t tell you I loved you enough
This pain I bare is just too tough

I dream of you every single night
An as the world seems to be just right
I wake to the reality of this life I hate
That you leaving me was an unjust fate

Memories of your voice rip me apart
The laugh I can’t hear tortures my heart
Your smile I hope to never forget
I’m filled with so many regrets

I wish that you could hold me as you did before
When I felt pain and sorrow impossible to ignore
Not knowing I’d lose you too soon later on
I can’t grasp the fact that now you’re gone

If I could take back all the hurtful words I said
And replace them with I love you instead
To tell you and show you just how much I cared
The regrets are just too much for me to bear

Even though I know where it is you are
In the arms of the one just, loving, God
I can’t help but hate to be without you here
I know that it’s selfish but my love is clear

My life couldn’t have been worth more than yours
The love for your baby boy couldn’t be ignored
The one you dreamed of and longed to have
The one I rock to sleep when you could have

He looks just like you when he sleeps
On my chest I feel his strong heart beat
His tender smile and dimples adored
My love for him grows forever more

Still my heart shatters when I see him
Thinking of you just brings tears to the brim
I know he’ll ask me about you someday
And I hope what I say would be okay

The love you felt for him I’ll try to convey
I hope the right words come for me to say
When the question comes as to who you were
To tell him you still are and always were

The one who loved him and cared the most
The greatest mommy in whom he’ll boast
A love so great and pure I felt
Can’t be taken away by the hand we were dealt

I’ll raise him as my very own
Loving and caring your feelings shown
Singing him to sleep with a heartfelt song
The one you’d sing if you weren’t gone

I’ll love you and miss you until the days run out
This life we walked had two different routes
This fact I know but dream it were wrong
Because I just can’t believe that now
You’re gone
