Took To Soon

I REMEMBER THE DAY THAT YOU WERE BORN, YOU WERE SO HAPPY AS LIFE WENT ON, THEN WHEN YOU WENT AWAY THAT WAS THE DAY I SAT AND PRAYED YOU JOINED THE ARMY AS YOU THOUGHT RIGHT, TO STAND FOR YOUR COUNTRY AND STAND AND FIGHT, BUT THEN ONE DAY THE SADNESS CAME, SOMEONE TOOK YOUR LIFE AWAY, WITH ALL MY THOUGHTS AND FEARS, IT WAS THE DAY THAT BROUGHT MY TEARS, YOU WENT TO HEAVEN AND GONE AWAY, BUT IN MY HEART YOU WILL ALWAYS STAY, AT THE GRAVE I CRY FOR YOU, HOPE NO MOTHER FEELS THE WAY I DO, WHY IS THIS WAR IN ENDLESS NEED, TO TAKE YOU AWAY FOR WHAT WE MEAN, WHY DO PEOPLE NEVER FEEL MY PAIN, WISH I COULD HAVE MY SON BACK AGAIN, MY LIFE HAS TURNED ALL AROUND, FOR MY SON WHO,S NOT AROUND, I KNOW YOUR SPIRIT IS NEVER FAR AWAY, I HOPE YOU HEAR ME SPEAK TO YOU EACH DAY, ALL MY LOVE MY SON I GIVE TO YOU, I HOPE YOU DONT FEEL MY SADNESS TO SO TILL THE TIME WHEN WE DO MEET IN MY HEART MY SON, YOU WILL ALWAYS KEEP,

Glad you wrote this one and hope there was some solace in putting it to paper. Will read more of your work as your writing style and word choice is very good. Best regards David in NZ

i feel your lost i lost a son in 2005 he was 39 when he died, way to soon and he left 3 sons behind. Your poem really touched my heart, and the hurt i know your going through is unbearable, but time does heal some of the hurt, not all but some.
