Sadness is waking up in the morning and not wanting to get up
Because all you can feel is the emptiness in your chest

On October 26, 2017 they pulled the plug
My childhood friend is no longer here
And on October 26, 2017 my heart stopped

I sat on the floor crumpled begging God to give her back
That he couldn't have her because she wasn’t done yet
But he didn’t
And she’s gone

And I’ll never get to hear her laugh again
Her funeral is this Thursday
I don’t know if I can go
I’m supposed to be strong for her parents but I know I can’t

I know the coffin will be closed because no one could bare the sight of her broken body
No one would be able to stand there knowing she had been hit
By a two-ton SUV that never stopped
Sadness is my friend who isn’t here to wipe away my tears anymore
