Second Chance

I wish that the world had given you
the chance that you deserved
I should have acted on
the sorrow I observed

I'll never know what it was like
to go through all your pain
But I know life without you
will never be the same

Though it was not I
that reached out to find that you weren't there
I can see the faces of those
that find life without you hard to bare

They have not
been the same
since the good no longer
outweighed the pain

You'll be missed
Its so clearly written in their eyes
Of all those people that hurt without you
Just listen to their cries

I hope now
you are finally at peace
But saying that I'm sorry
Isn't much to say the least

May there now be
Rest for your soul
Let the pain of life be washed away
and I hope now you are whole

I'll miss you, Jamie
Even if I barely knew you
I know that you were great at heart
When I look at the sorrow of your friends, I know it must be true


In Honor of Miss Jamie Huffman: You are Missed
