Counting Time

13 Weeks, 2 Days, 11 Hours & 21 Minuets,
That's how long you've been gone,
and today I thought about you non-stop,
Its like that everyday
So hard to forget all of the things I loved about you, but didn't see
You're life was long & happy, yet I only see your pain
I wish I could see you smiling,
But my memory plays like a broken record since you passed,
Its like I have a broken heart, broken for the first time
An unexplainable heartache, I wish I could see you one last time,
Id tell you I love you - again
Because today I mean it more than ever,
You were like a Mother to me, and I never told you that,
I hope you know how loved you were,
Time is passing slowly, life hurts
Soon I hope to look back with acceptance and look back with pride,
That god needed an angel, and that it was your time,
Your memory is burned within me, and I will never forget
You were more special to me than both of us ever knew
Good night, God Bless darling, I love you
xxxxxx

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
