You were Taken Away

Fifteen years ago today
The Angels came and took you away.

My heart hurt then as it does now
But I'll see you again, this is my vow.

I ask myself, day after day
What is there here, why should I stay?

People don't see deep into my heart
They can't see, it was very hard to part.

Our days are numbered, here on this earth
I take day by day, for what it's worth.

You didn't see it coming, that fateful night
A kid took your life, and that wasn't right.

There's no more left for me on this earth
My friends say they care, so why do I hurt?

My feelings are deep, way down in my soul
I can't let them out, why is this so?

It's been fifteen years since I lost you, dad
But to this day I still feel sad.

I'm ready to join both you and my mom
Lord......why is it taking you oh so long??
