We clasp hands and take
the first steps through it all
We’ve lost another by
lack of faith and now we take the fall

but we don’t know what we have lost

The fog keeps our thoughts
distant and our minds in repose
The dim light besets our
happiness, but that is how life goes

but we realize something is wrong

The trees sway and the waters
part to show us the light
Cold eyes, and cold hearts
to see the humbling sight

but you are no longer in our life

for you are gone and there is
naught we can do
but kneel at your tombstone
and think contritely of you

but I still desire to ask, “where do we go from here”
