Never Say Goodbye
Lonely days fill up my mind
Nighttime comes and stars don't shine
Without you my heartbeat wanes
Time stands still...no joy...
Pain.
It's been too long since we've been close
Too long...only Heaven knows
The days' routine I miss so much
Children, chores, your gentle touch
The minor things much ignored
Are major memories, future stories
The mundane tasks that mark our days
A new day's folklore of our family's ways
Our children's legacy, ours to make
Our triumphs, trials, mistakes
We've done our best Heaven knows
Dear God, how I miss you...my children also
Please return to me, soon, I pray
The year has turned, so has our days
I love you still...always
'til death do us part...we've promised past
Beyond eternity...may our love last.
