Silent Sorrow
Each year in the Christmas joy
I long for my missing toy
The man who had my heart and soul
No longer lives inside my home
I begin to reflect on summer days
we would run from rolling waves
Winter nights we'd sit by a fire
our hearts blazing with desire
I never felt the winter storm
holding you feeling safe & warm
Your leaving was not your plan
Death eventually takes every man
I may smile with the holiday season
but inside I'm bleeding, as long
as I am a part of this life, in
spirit, I will remain your wife.
