May's Funeral

I caught

The first flight home

To put you in the ground

I haven't come to terms

With the news

I just found out

Today it is

Raining outside

To match

This empty feeling

That I'm left

With tonight

You will be missed

You were always here

To get me

Through times like this

And I know if you were

Here you'd be

Laughing at me

You would say

You're not as alone

As you think

Here at your funeral

Everyone

Is dressed in black

As if the colors

Would attack

And I watched everyone

In the room start to cry

I've never fought tears

Like this before tonight

You've always made

It look so easy

And you know

I struggle

Through it all

You've always made

It look so easy

And now it's harder

Than it's

Ever been before

You will be missed

You were always here

To get me

Through times like this

And I know if you

Were here

You'd be

Laughing at me

You would say

You're not

As alone

As you think

It's a year today

The first anniversary

I hope you're listening

I can't find

The words to say

Here at your funeral

Everyone

Is dressed in black

As if the colors

Would attack

And I watched everyone

In the room start to cry

I've never fought tears

Like this before tonight

You will be missed

You were always here

To get me

Through times like this

And I know

If you were here

You'd be

Laughing at me

You would say

You're not

As alone

As you think
