"EMPTY" by Joanne Boyle

I wrap my arms around emptiness.

I fill the the space with tears.

I run to heaven in my mind

and tell God about my fears.

I tell him that when you come,

he needs to send you back.

The world wasn't ready to lose you,

and you had taken the wrong track.

I would lock the pearly gate

and safely store the key.

I'd show you an army of love,

that would be yours for eternity.

I would use all my strength to fight you,

to make you turn around.

I would even put you on my back

and carry you back to ground.

I guess that's why there are no ladders,

that lead us to the sky,

because then heaven would have no angels

because love wouldn't let you die.
