Kondolenz melden

As I closed my eyes to sleep that night
I did not know I would wake in the morning
and you would not

As I closed my eyes to sleep that night
I did not know you would take your last breath
and your beautiful heart would stop beating

As I closed my eyes to sleep that night
I did not know that the truth of that
day had eluded me,
and I lived that day with a profound
unawareness of the irreversible life
shattering change that was about
to take place

As I closed my eyes to sleep that night
I did not know the sun had set on your last day

As I closed my eyes to sleep that night
I did not know
