I Know You Don’t Know What To Say

And I know you really try.
It’d hard for you to understand,
Because your sweet child didn’t die.
Please don’t say….”It was Gods will”‘
Thinking faith is what I lack.
My child died and I’m still here.
That’s just a cold hard fact.
Please don’t say…”I know how you feel”‘
Even though you think you do.
This pain was somehow granted, To only just a few.
Please don’t say…”Life wonderful!”
And expect that mine should be.
There’s nothing here within this world,
To make my life complete.
Please don’t say…”It was meant to be”,
I hate that old cliché.
Although I do believe it, Those words are for me to say.
Please don’t say…”You should move on”.
Like you did when” someone “died.
You see you just don’t understand The tears a parent cries.
Please don’t say…”It’s a better place”‘
Even though I know it’s true.
I want back all the yesterdays, Before death captured youth.
Please don’t say…”I understand”.
Just be thankful you’ve been spared.
I know you don’t know what to say,
So simply say…”I care”.
