The Missing Piece

Quietly I sit and listen to the wind pass me by
The rustles of the leaves
The clearness in the sky.

The emptiness in my heart
The sadness in my eyes
The aching of my mind
Now that wer'e apart.

My mind it tends to wonder
So many thoughts running through
Of all the memories shared together
Remembering me and you.

What I would do to see your face
To fell your hands clasped in mine
And know that your'e back again
That would be divine.

It's not fair that you left
It was cruel on all of us
I won't say we were lucky we had that time
Because it was the hardest thing in life.

I often look up into the stars
And wonder where you are
But it hurts to try and think about it
"cos now wer'e all apart.

Strange as you see the clouds float by
So peaceful that they seem
Just drifting gently by as if it were a dream.

Unfortunately I can't open my eyes
And see you standing before me
I really wish it possible
For you to rejoin us.

Life could go back to normal again
Our family reunited
No chain ever broken
The links conjoined solidly
Without a weakness shown.

You'd smile and be so happy
To have us altogether
No more heartache
Or trying to remember memories.

But you are the piece of puzzle
The main piece needed to complete
Our family joined together
Without the most special bit.

Our lives have never been the same
Since that early morning you left us
Although we still live day by day
Our smiles hiding the heartache
Which will never go away.
