One More Day

I had a wish for one more day that our time would just stand still but our time together has run out it was out of our hands... this was God's will I am broken but not angry it's just so hard to let you go love can make you selfish but pain can make grow I shall treasure every moment every minute that we shared I'll keep them locked in a special place hidden beneath my tears I will be strong, and you'll be proud for my strength has come from you unconditional was love the kind only known by few In this end comes a beginning for we will never again be apart your memories will live through me as your love lives in my heart Together we weep as one your tears fall from my eyes you whispered the day had come it was time to say, "good-bye" How could you go when there's so much I need to say grant me this one wish- please give me one more day So many years I let slip by so many pages left unread the love I kept inside are the words left unsaid A picture of your face in a frame within my mind timeless are the memories of the love you left behind I'll take you with me- beside me is where you will stand I'll never again walk alone for we'll be walking hand and hand I had a wish for one more day that our time would just stand still I realize now, in the love you gave, my wish has been fullfilled.
