Passing the Pain

I'm empty, I'm lost, broken and torn I've misplaced the hope And the smiles that I've worn I stare at the shadows that are not really there Tomorrow means nothing I no longer care A feeling of dismay now fills my heart The past often haunts me It tears me apart My reasons for living now slowly fade But you'll never see The mess that you made The answers I need, I'll never find You didn't end the pain You left it behind The day that it happened part of me died You made me feel death Through your suicide Note: We are burying my nephew today who shot himself on June 9th 2012 (My birthday). He left no suicide note, so we have no answers. But for anyone contemplating suicide. It doesn't stop the pain, you only pass it along.
