Too soon, the morning light Casts shadows on the night The pain still fresh, the wounds still raw How can we move on when we're still so flawed? Too soon, the flowers bloom A reminder of life's impending doom The beauty of the world around But how can we enjoy when we're feeling down? Too soon, the memories fade The laughter and love that we made The moments we cherished, now lost in time How can we move forward, with such a heavy climb? Too soon, the world moves on But our hearts still sing a different song The pain and grief too much to bear How can we go on, when life is so unfair? But in time, the wounds will heal The memories once again feel real The sun will shine, the flowers will bloom And life will carry on, despite the gloom. So let us hold on to what we've lost But not let it be our only cost For life is precious, and time is short Let's live it to the fullest, in every effort and every sort.
