We need to talk about it

We have to talk about it

What happened

Why it happened

How it changed out lives

I saw you cry for the very first time that we found out

That the poison was killing the one we loved.

I haven't seen you deal with the facts,

And its only a matter of time till you break down

I want to talk about

Not only remember the memories and the highs but also the painful lows.

Without talking about it how can I get that support and understand what took her away?

Bad things happen in life, and sorrow does not describe our pain

But without talking about it how can we deal with the aftermath in the wake.

We were robots those few days going about events as though normal

We laughed and we smiled

But was that a fascade and a pretense?

Was the real pain hiding behind?

Slowly as time went on

Our barricades and our clever fort broke down.

The rush of pain greeted us at the door step

And we were helpless and we succumbed

I don't know if

And we were helpless and we succumbed

I don't know if you think breaking down is a sign of weakness

But I need to see that you have come to terms.

Reality is really no fun at times but a part of life we cannot escape.

She's watching from the heavens and sees how we are

We should not deceive the ones around us

Because in the end they will be there to support us.
