Gone

It wasn't at all your fault, it was over
She couldn't take more of the disease
It took her down, violently, no mercy
Alone, she was my hope and dream
But the world showed her no grace
Stole everything she loved, and more
I had no voice, broken, unchosen
All my screams silent, unspoken
She lost her fight, but now is healed
And now she has wings, soars
I was given up, and she took me in
Made sure I felt love, healed me
Alone waiting, in a crib, alone
I heard God bless him, she lifted me
Took me to her heart, and never
Never once let go and I miss her
More than I can even know or feel
