Joshua Michael Mincks

If tears could build a stairway,
and memories were a lane
I'd walk right up to heaven
to bring you home again.

No farewell words were spoken,
no time to say good-bye.
You were gone before I knew it,
and only God knows why.

My heart still aches in sadness,
and secret tears still flow;
What it's meant to lose you,
no one will ever know.
