Today Is Gone

Today I saw my life pass me by I saw my first steps My first kiss, he was much cuter when we where little kids I saw my first day of Kindergarten, Junior and High school, I cant believe I used to wear that I saw me going on my first date And then going to prom with him Then breaking up because he wanted to just be friends, And how I cried for days Graduation soon came and how I missed my friends over the years Then college where I meet my true love, after many misses I Gaduated then was soon married the following December We had twin girls then fell in love and adopted a little boy and soon came another boy I remember seeing them all take there first steps and seeing my two little girls go to kindergarten But that’s where my life ends, Someone took one to many drinks, “I was only buzzed though.” I heard him say as they walked him passed me, while I and my youngest son lay under white sheets I said good-bye to my girls and husband while they where in the operating room My son Nathan cried when I told he couldn’t stay in Heaven with James, Jesus and I Three lives lost today two without a memory to remember
