For my lost girl

For the empty place that would have been filled by you
for the tears that must be cried that won't be put aside
And the dreams of you that I have had that died with you, sweet girl with you
These I mourn this dark morning.

For the sister friend who longs to know you more
For the heart that breaks in her, my lovely little bird
And the way she asks the unanswerable question why, that my heart also cries
These I mourn this dark morning

But the sun will rise in spite of the dark
And we will rise from this place and see you face to face
Someday.  When we see Him face to face.
