A tear is falling from my eye
a pain has struck my heart
It's like lightning striking my heart and making me cry
Someone was taken from me and yet someone was given to me
I lost a mother and a sister and I received a sister
But the pain I have suffered will never go away
What I have lost will never come back
No one can fill those two empty spots in my heart
and No one can ever take away my pain
For I now have a tear in my eye
And a pain & emptiness in my heart.
