My Heart
What can I say
I can't pray the pain away
even now, some years later
words escape the page and paper.
You were my heart
forty-nine years in its start
a sense, a feeling
sent my heart to beating.
Without a word, only a simple sigh
you slipped away leaving me to cry
and now left to walk alone
I live in memory of the love we owned.
Missing you never goes away
no goodbyes, just a kiss that stays,
here I am, unable to speak
awaiting my turn to reach that peak.
