Always In My Heart

Always in my Heart I wake this morning, his bed is bare His smell is here but he’s not there. The rooms the same because it’s his But the sparkles gone and so is the fizz. I feel his clothes they mean so much So nice to smell, so nice to touch. His body’s gone, He’s in my heart He’ll never leave, we’ll never part. As days go by I feel the pain Some days I feel I’ll go insane In my thoughts every day And that’s the way it will ever stay Time goes by - year by year Sometimes a whisper in my ear? He made the world a better place Now in heaven, he’s left the race We must go on the way things are He would expect we raise the bar. In my heart he now lives Much love and warmth he still gives In my heart, till we meet again In a far off place on another plain

A beautiful tribute. Clothes can provide so much comfort, as you say 'nice to smell and nice to touch. Thanks for sharing this one, sad but very beautiful.
