Well!

How many seconds did it take?

Was it over in a flash?

Or did it slow down time, 

"Where is my mind?" 

How much pain did you feel? 

Did you dissassociate? 

Did you get a chance to pray

before the light faded away? 

Well, I'm sorry! 

I didn't mean to let you down, 

I wasn't doing too well myself. 

It's no excuse, I know. 

For what it's worth, I'm doing the best I can.

Do you remember hanging from the cabin rafters?

Or fireballs that burned our clothes in the woods?

The Roman Holiday, when we actually prayed

and thought that maybe God was on our side for once?

Well, I'm sorry! 

I didn't expect you to die, 

and I'm trying each day just to survive. 

It's no excuse, I know. 

I cut my rope, but I can't let go. 

Well, I'm sorry! 

I wish I had been around

I said I would be and I let you down

There's nothing I can do, you're in a box

And I'll I've got are forget-me-nots. 

"Don't kill yourself to raise the dead, you'll only end up joining them."
