Lost In The Sky by Nicole Ricketts

I took a trip just the other day
To a place of sparkly blues
You may be mad If I say
I went to see you

You told me I have to be strong
Through thick and thin
Even through our favorite song
But I can't, it's tearing away all my skin

I am tired of all the tears
Running down my face
I am tired of all the fears
That you aren't here to chase

I could really use a friend
Who won't leave me all alone
Because I have a heart to mend
And I am still living in your time zone

I want to knock down this wall
That is blocking everyone out
But it's going to be hard, because I feel so small
Nobody hears me, even when I shout

Please come home and don't be mad
When I come and visit you in the sky
I want what I once had
I want to say goodbye

sharing your feelings
What a deep feeling write saying how you feel is a good way of easing your loss.This was so touching because it came from your heart. Thank-you.

loneliness
Nicole! Loneliness can sometimes benefit us but as reluctant as some of us are to admit, we need a friend to share the good and bad times with. The happy and sad times with.

Truly geniune Nicole!
