2 years my heart is crying, 12 years my heart is screaming

Today I listen.

Today I tell you both how much I miss you.

Crying wake me in the middle of the night,

it's my own.

Today my heart, mind and body have found my understanding.

I can now understand the true meaning of pain.

Tomorrow is not given. Tomorrow is not earned

At least we've lived today.

Now I can breathe again.

As the tears run down my face,

it's 5pm again.
