I Miss You

I Miss You By Franklin Price 06/18/2022 I miss you, darling, every day, but most of all at night To not have you here beside me, when I'm switching off the light To know that I can't touch you, as I'm falling off to sleep To know that I am all alone, makes me mourn and softly weep So many years we had together, God willed that it should be Since two thousand, seven, it was mostly you and me We relished in each other, shared in every night and day Remembering the good times that we had along the way I feel you are still with me. I'm still living in our house You will never go away, for fifty years you were my spouse I still have you deep inside me, in my heart and in my mind You are watching down from Heaven, and aren't leaving me behind Today has been five long months, since God came and took you home I have been so lost without you. That's why I'm writing you this poem You are still here with me. I feel you every single day I know God did the best for you, when he took your soul away. I know he left me for a reason, what it is I'm finding out I go to church on every Sunday to see what it's all about I sing and offer praises, and listen to the preacher preach I believe that Jesus saved us and he's never out of reach I'm longing for some company but I feel it's way too soon You spoiled me for all our years, always sent me to the moon I feel you close beside me, still feel the softness of your hand The way that I still want you, is much more than I can stand I ask you that you will understand, if I still have some desire I need someone to be with me, to sing with me in the choir It may be just for company, to have someone to share If it turns out, it's more than that, want you to know, I'll always care I never will forget you, could not have had a better wife You are, and always will be, the soul mate of my life When life on earth is gone for me, I don't want to lose the way You will be waiting for me, up in heaven, on that day
