The loneliness of a strange bed
the tears that come at night
No kisses on your forehead
Little comfort for the fright.

You wonder where we are
and why we are not there
You look at a distant star
with such a tearful stare

Where are they you ask
where could they have gone
What is it I’ve done to deserve
to be so far from my home.

We wish we could tell you
we were sorry this happened
We wish we could console you
and put a smile to your feelin’s

We want you to know this
even though you may never see
We send our love and a kiss
to you from us all tenderly

Barry

How my heart aches to read this.  You know I echo feelings above and send prayers to all concerned for peace and understanding.
