You Died Yesterday
by Terry Hull
You died yesterday
And I knew it would come, this day
But why so soon, why have I no say
What will you do, what will you make
On this new journey you now take
You died yesterday
I watched you struggle, I watched you weep
I watched you laugh, I watched you shriek
I watched you sing, I watched you reap
The benefit of a long earned sleep
You died yesterday
And as I looked out the window, I wondered
Why everything looked the same, nothing asunder
But inside everything felt broken and plundered
The world less vibrant and full of blunder
You died yesterday
So today I will weep, and tomorrow I will grieve
And each day forward I will try to achieve
The life full of laughter and love you believed
Was yours to give and mine to receive
