The Bench In the Forest
Your beauty is breathtaking
as we sit amongst the trees.
I will always remember this moment
when I try to go to sleep.
I hope you will not leave too soon
I’m selfish in that way.
I have so much to tell you
but I don’t know what to say.
Why is it so hard for me
Lord please give me strength.
My love for you is endless
as I sit alone on this bench.
I wish you were beside me
to hold me through this pain.
The tears are endless
it will never be the same.
I want to carve our initials
on every tree I see.
So when I hike the forest
you will always be with me.
