if my tears could bring you back.

if you've lost someone lately, even a pet, i would not suggest reading this. though it does not mention animals, it is pretty deep.

***introduction***

i actually wrote this a few years back for someone on a support group. she was going through a tough time, and this really eased her pain.

If my tears could bring you back, Mommy

I'd've never let you go

If life was great and life was fine

I'd've never let you go

I'm finding it hard to sleep tonight

I'm finding it hard to eat

Life goes on, but it's a lie

You're the one I seek

If my tears could bring you back, Mommy

I'd cry a thousand tears

I'd let you hold me in your arms

And destroy all my lifelong fears

But tears won't bring you back

Somehow this has been realized

I'm still crying like they can, Mommy

I guess we can all take the time to idealize

If my tears could bring you back, Mommy

I'd cry a thousand tears

I'd let you rock me in your arms

And together erase these last seven years

I totally get this feeling. If my tears could bring my dad's life back, I would cry everyday until I see him again. But it doesn't work that way, I get that. I know he's in a better place because he is with God. Even if it's sad, I have accepted my father's death already and I know God is caring for him more than we ever could

yes, and i am sure he's looking down on you. probably thinking.. oh, i'm so proud of how you've coped with it. i do believe that, that the dead look down on us
