Easy For Anyone To Say

 It's easy for anyone to say

"She's not here, she went away"

To a better place we know for sure

A place where pain, she'll not endure.

But hard for those who loved and lost,

Whose dreams and plans are ever tossed,

Hard to say "goodbye" forever

To one whose love did fail you never

Easy it is to say, "It will all be okay,

You'll see her soon another day"

Easy it is to be a friend

To hug and comfort without end.

But hard it is,  to finish the journey

Without the one who made it worthy

Hard it is, to live each day with purpose

Without her hand in yours, to stay your course.

I think of her today and every day,

I tell her of my love in every way

My life and love will never stray

But it's oh, so hard, for me to say.

I can see her footprints in the sand,

I can feel her reach to grasp my hand

Her marks are etched upon my heart

So hard to leave and ever part

Hard it is to know what's right

To find your way without your light

 But it's easy for anyone to say

"She's not here, she went away"
