Looking to the sky
she asks humbly for answers
silent prayers
recites lullabies
sung to her as a child
those that brought peace
hoping to feel you
touch and breathe in
the tenderness that you give
each feather she wears
represents each day
of endless sadness
all of the memories
she stores within her soul
the laughter and tears
her dreams and goals
all of those promises that you made
she still firmly holds onto them
her future used to seem
so crystal clear
now everything is dust
without you here
her heart breaks
everything shatters
please come back again
to bring peace to her soul
and make her young heart
complete
