Poem

Two months ago I went to the funeral home to say my last good-bye
To a man who was only 24, and far too young to die

I looked into his friends’ sad faces, the pain so clear to see
And when they came to talk to me, I held them close and lovingly

I held my precious wife’s warm hand, and wiped tears from her face
Knowing that the son she lost could never be replaced

His new step-children played so sweetly, on the floor they played a game
The love of his life, always willing, ready to take his name 

Lord, I know you’ll never leave me, but I’m feeling so alone
But still I thank you very humbly, for all his years at home

You say to lay this at your feet, and you’ll take away my pain
So I’m crying out to you, faithfully calling your holy name

I truly believe and trust in you, and I’m trying with all my might
But Lord my heart is aching, for what I’m feeling tonight

Please wrap your arms around me, let me feel your grace and love
Bless me with your words so wise, and bring comfort from above

Show me how to honor my son, and make him proud of me
As I in turn was always proud and still will always be

I want his life to make a difference, in all he was a part
So give some meaning to his death, and ease my breaking heart

Only you will know the day, to Heaven I will gladly go
And I want my son to say to me, “Welcome Dad, I’ve missed you so.”
