Troubled Heart

The moment you took your life,

I felt mine ended too.

If I could only turn back time,

there’s so much I would undo.

I didn’t see the warning signs.

You held them deep inside.

Struggles you were going through

you did so well to hide.

I’m left with guilt and sorrow

and confusion as to why.

You didn’t tell me of your pain

and felt you had to die.

Every soul is precious

in the eyes of God above.

He will heal your troubled heart

with His never-ending love.

I’ll put my faith in Him,

as I pray my heart will mend

and keep you in my memory

’till I’m with you once again.
