Still

Still...
Maria Sharon Moemise

Living my life as if there's no tomorrow 
Drying tears flowing in a stream of sorrow 
Pained, yet continuing through force of will
I look for you, in vain. Hoping still...

Your departure from me was unforeseen
I believed in eternity, life unobscured, serene
Then reality struck and life spiraled downhill 
I wished you'd hold on longer , yet still...

It shattered my soul to millions of pieces
Losing you, a sense of my heart decreases
I go on my knees believing it was God's will
That I feel so alone, forsaken, though, still...

I see you smiling at me through  cloudy skies
I hear your voice with the birds at every sunrise
I feel a touch of your love with every raindrop that spills
I know you've gone, and I miss you still


(Dedicated to all I have loved and lost)
