~~~~~~~
It’s difficult when someone
Who is loved cannot be there,
But memories that
are made and shared
Will keep a loved one near.
And God, with loving wisdom,
Will be there to guide us through;
He’ll help us meet tomorrow
And He’ll give us strength anew.
Gone
~~~~~~~
You left this world, no sound was heard
I had not an idea
That life on earth, would end for you
And you would not be here.
You were gone, before I knew it
No chance to say goodbye
I cannot grasp, that you’re not here
Or know the reason why.
Your tragic end, came swift and fast
And I could not be there
To hold your hand and comfort you
It’s much more than I can bear.
I wish I could rewind the clock
And have known now, what I know
I could have hugged you one more time
Before you had to go.
In my heart, I’ll hold you close
And there you shall remain
Until my time has come on earth
When we shall meet again.
