Hero's Death

~By Munro


It's alone, so alone.
But now my lover is gone.
I don't know why I feel so sad.
Because I am so mad.

So young and left me so soon.
I have so many questions I couldn't ask.
Now praying to him seems like a task.
Gee, Why did you go back?

Died saving people due what I've said.
Didn't know I left you so caged.
I hope you find it in your heart to forgive me.
So that I can learn from you and will finally see.

But still I wonder why I don't feel you around.
Why I don't see you there up on the cloud.
Are you mad or are you just helping me stand.
Because faith is so painful and unfair.

I still remember your smile and all of your flair.
Which are now in my memory throughout this life.
If I only could bring you back.
My friend, I would unsay the words I've said.

Now I am standing here next to your cold body.
Soon you will be burned to dust.
Oh God, take care of my friend which I've lost.
The friend whom I want back at all cost.

I kiss him goodbye on his cold cheeks.
I feel the wind, like he found what he seeked.
The clouds cry out in all kinds of rain.
Yet I look up and feel no more pain.
