Four Roses

To hear The need to talk to you with nothing important to say This feeling comes over me many times through out the day To tell you how the day went or what's been on my mind That I miss you, wish for you even after all this time I pray to hear your voice, to hear you laugh once more It's something I must imagine and often dream for To see I long to look upon you for you to stand in my sight To see your loving smile so genuine and bright To look into your eyes to see the beauty deep within The curves of your face and the color of your skin Can't feel the comfort of your look nor the power of your stare All that is left are pictures, it just doesn't seem fair To feel I yearn to feel your touch and really have you here To hold your hand, share a hug and simply have you near To feel your warmth upon me, for your presence to be real Sadly this won't happen and these wounds will not heal I look to my memories and keep you in my heart To remember how your love felt while we are apart The dream Heaven's where you wait for me, this I do believe That on the day we meet again you'll remember me To get me through the years and moments you're away I'll keep you in my dreams and that is where you will stay To get a glimpse of you, to keep your memory alive You'll be the dream I have for the rest of my life So I bring to you and set gently on your grave Four roses as my promise. A promise to be brave I promise to live, love, and laugh. To always stay true I promise. Heaven's where I'll meet you These four roses keep me going and here is what they mean One to hear, one to see, one to feel, and one for the dream

I feel your pain and I think this is something everyone who has lost a loved one will feel like...We never get over the pain, just learn to adapt to it...
