Tuesday 5th December
One thousand days and empty nights
As though someone turned out the lights
We didn’t know it was close to the end
We really thought you were on the mend
No longer we’ll hear the sound of laughter
You didn’t have that ‘Happy ever after’
Emptiness is all that remains
Since you broke free from those mortal chains
I tried so hard to save you that night
But you slipped away without a fight
Our darling boy in heaven above
We are sending to you so much love
