I miss you. Tell me you're okay.
Since I found you encompassed
Two weeks prior
In the gruesome sorrow of death's embrace.
I never thought
That once again
I'd bury my hopes
With another child;
Life with you
Was fun and vibrant,
Full of feeling,
Loving, wild;
I know you'd want me
To be tough-
To continue on
Life's lumbering pace;
To focus on living,
To cherish your memory,
To center myself on love,
Not hate.
Though I don't understand
What happened that night
When the reaper came
To the call of fate,
I know you'd want me
To persevere,
To feel your love
From Heaven's gates.
I am broken,
I am wrenched,
My aching soul
Screams your name;
But somehow I know
When I'm old
I'll be in your happy
Presence again.
Life's not fair,
Life's a test
Of wading through fear,
Sorrow and blame;
Show me your mercy,
Send me your trust,
That we'll be reunited
In Heaven again.
