You Were Really Gone

Stunning white wings take you
Up, farther than the moon
Past the Milky Way
And I pray that I will see you soon

But now I’m sitting here all alone
No one there to walk me home
An empty spot where you used to sit
And I stare at it, for a little bit

I look at the silver lining
The silver lining on a cloud
And I start crying
As I imagine you there

You’re waving at me
Glowing pure white
No longer dealing with
The sickness you had to fight

So young and beautiful you look as I stare
I blink quickly yet not fast enough
For you vanished in the sun’s bright glare
And there I took it, pretty tough

You were really gone
Though I might see you again
So for now you were really gone
Flying on your wings in heaven
