Poem/Song as a tribute to the four miners killed this week in Swansea, South Wales UK.....
May their memories live on and their souls rest in peace.......
Thoughts go to their families and their community........

CRY MYSELF TO SLEEP

Saw your photo on the table
Just last night
You looked up and smiled at me

Thought you called my name
Just the other day
Hurt more than I can say

I see your face every night
When I close my eyes
And I cry myself to sleep

Oh yes I cry myself to sleep
I cry myself to sleep
I cry myself to sleep
I cry myself to sleep

Without you – there is no day
Without you – I can’t find my way
Without you – there is only night
Without you – there is no light

Read your story in the paper
Just last week
Said how brave you were

You died working for people
That you love
And those people still waiting for you

I see your face every night
When I close my eyes
And I cry myself to sleep

Oh yes I cry myself to sleep
I cry myself to sleep
I cry myself to sleep
I cry myself to sleep

I cry myself to sleep

Thank you for your beautiful words here Geoff .
May Philip,Charlie,David and Garry rest in peace

It says it all.
