I Died a Little Inside--

I died a little inside-- It was three years ago, today; That I once again, fell on my knees; As I talk, I prayed to God and I said; Why? Oh why Lord; Did you have to take her away? I cried, cried and I said; I died a little inside; Why?, why or Why? She’s not here so I cried and I died a little inside; I cried, I tried to hold the tears inside; Cause a man not supposed to cry, sigh; Why oh why? Did you take her away, God away from me, she died; I died myself, yes I died a little inside today On my knees still I pray, I say… Man born of woman Is born just of a few days and full of trouble; This life we live on this earth is just temporal; Must realize this is just a stopping place to amazing grace; As I wipe my eyes Yet I still cry inside I keep wondering is she with Him Jesus freed us, we need Jesus Life eternal one day I’ll join her Did you have to take her away? I cried, cried and I said; I died a little inside; Why?, why or Why? Do I cry, why do I cry? It’s because I’ve died a little inside Oh wo oh Without you in my life Oh wo oh I have died a little inside 2/8/19 written by James Edward Lee Sr. ©2019 Contest Winner Medal 2 I died a little inside Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Silent One
