I miss hearing your laughter,
and listening to you tell a joke
You always gave me a smile,
whenever mine broke.

Some days I swear I see you,
until you catch my eye
And then you disappear,
and I gaze upon the sky.

I see your smiling face,
as if telling me you're okay,
And that it's time for me,
to forget that appalling day.

There are so many things I need to say,
so many things I want to do
My heart is full of desolation
with how much I miss you.

You were more than just a friend;
you are a piece of my heart
And now you have become my poetry,
you have become my art

When I look upon the black velvet sky,
and at the crystal stars I gaze
The astonishing job you've done up there,
I have to give you praise

It's never been so mesmerizing,
it's never been so clear
You've shown me there is nothing,
I'll ever need to fear.

I know you're watching over me,
I know you're always there
But without you by my side,
my life still seems so bare.
