The Run Around

Time will heal all wounds, little sister
The pain of today will fade with each morrow
It may hurt you now but give it time
And you will forget, you will survive.

But when the days are dark
And the nights are cold
I will always remember
And the pain will come back
And the hurting will resume
All bliss is conditional
And all suffering is eternal.

And when those deep, dark days arrive
Just remember that the day before was darker
And you survived
You will make it out on the other end
And we will all be there waiting
For you
Smiles wide and arms warm.

But your comforts will never be enough
Your hugs and kisses never sweet enough
For there will always be the whole
A missing part of my soul
That will fester and puss
And in the end, it will kill me.

Do not fear,
For time will heal all wounds, little sister
The pain of today will fade with each morrow
It may hurt you now but give it time
And you will forget, you will survive.

But when the days are dark
And the nights are cold
I will always remember…
