Don?t tell me you know how I feel,
You haven?t walked in my shoes.
Don?t tell me to get out of the house,
Maybe I just want to stay here and mourn
for my PIETER
Don?t tell me it will get better,
From my point of view it will NEVER be better.
Don?t tell me it could be worse,
How much worse than this could it be.
Don?t tell me to trust in God,
I do trust in Him and love Him,
That won?t bring my PIETER back
Don?t tell me to eat and take care of myself,
Maybe the food won?t stay down.
Maybe I don?t care about myself right now.
Don?t tell me to try to get some sleep,
Don?t you think I would love to sleep?
Don?t tell me to go to sleep up steers.
Don?t tell me all this,
You haven?t walked in my shoes.
Do tell me you care.
Do tell me you will be there if I need you.
If I need to just talk to call you.
Or better yet, you call me.
Just listen, that?s all, just listen.
Do let me cry. Do let me mourn.
Do let me experience this terrible loss that I feel.
Do pray for PIETER and me.
And Do NOT forget MY PIETER
That is all I ask.
