I Came to Talk
I came to talk but you could not wait
The pain too great you took your leave
In shock I stood — fear, disbelief
but the truth was clear
that you’d gone from here
I hope you’ve found a place of peace
Amongst the trees by the mighty oak
As sunlight dances through the leaves
I chance you’ll catch a glimpse of me
Remembering you amongst the trees
On a starlit night so silver bright
The full moon calling out your name
I wish you hadn’t felt the pain
that made you take your life in vain
If only I had had that chance
to talk and ease away your pain
but you could not wait, I came too late
I didn’t know your time was near
Strong friendships stand the test of time
and ours supported both of us
We shared, we cared, we laughed and cried
you shared your strength and I shared mine
Then one day demons came to call
and they brought pain too great to bare
You lost your way, they did not care
Our friendship shattered, torn and tattered
I came to talk, I wish we had
but you could not wait, I came too late
