I shy away from facing my sadness,
With beer and tears for only company
My thoughts lost in familiar darkness,
And the sharp pain of my agony

Writing these lines to keep my mind at bay
Trying to cope with the unbearable pain
Of that dreadful day when you passed away
Unborn you were, and will ever so remain

No amount of crying will bring you back
I’ve tried though, and the clouds are beat
My tears have won; rain admits it’s defeat

My heart moans, bursts and turns black
Anger and grief live side by side
And I know not where to hide
