It Hurts

It hurts because,
You were a special friend,
It hurts because,
Your life has come to an end.
It hurts because,
It was never meant to be,
It hurts because,
You always meant so much to me.
It hurts because,
I could always feel your pain,
It hurts because,
I know I'll never see you again.
It hurts because,
I knew what you were going through,
It hurts because,
I couldn't reach out and comfort you.
It hurts because,
I couldn't help you find the way,
It hurts because,
I couldn't find the right words to say.
It hurts because,
You really touched my heart,
It hurts because,
It has now been torn apart.
It hurts because,
We can't share secrets anymore,
It hurts because,
It won't be like it was before.
It hurts because,
You were too young to die,
It hurts because,
I never got the chance to say goodbye...
