everyone wants him to come back into their lives,

but obviously they can't nor he can.

photographs and memories are left in the heart

it is a safe that no robber can pry into.

all they can do is cry

all they can do is mourn

their world is draped in black

they know he's blessed.

they know he's loved

kisses and hugs were shared.

tears and shouts were heard.

He planted a tree in everyone's heart

a tree that never withers nor bore

all he wanted was

a place in our hearts.
