Half of me is missing
Half of me is gone
I feel the loss so bitterly
How can I carry on?
Half of me is missing
The better part I’m sure
The pain it is unending
There is no known cure.
Half of me is missing
How can I ever learn
That he is gone forever
No, he will not return.
In a care free moment
He ran into the street
Joy filled his heart
He saw a butterfly
He ran into the street
School was out for the day
Now it was time for play
Sunshine filled the air
Flowers lined the way
He waved his little hands
And ran into the street
The car came very quickly
Around the quiet curve
There was no time to stop
Deep anguish for the mother
Deep anguish for the driver
Because he saw the butterfly
And ran into the street.
